Hi Christine,

Mike is correct for when your UDF is set up as a Task UDF.  However, if you use a Bar UDF then you should have the functionality you need.

Thanks Mike!

I thought I'd managed it before, perhaps I hadn't after all :D

No worries, Im putting milestones in as I go along anyway and will be moving them all when Im done so the problem is pretty much sorted - for this time anyway :)

Hi Christine

This is an inherent problem - you can only type data in a user field if there is a task on the bar.

You can put the information in the  Task Name Column - enter a task - Type The Frequency information - delete the task - not the bar - then you can format the text.

I hope that helps

Best regards
