Adding borders around some tasks

[andy]

Hi i Hope someone can advise..

I am trying to segment a part of a project so the tasks stand out from
others. I thought about putting a border around the tasks so that you can
see a difference when the plan is printed out.. but I dont know how to do it
or if it is possible..

Regards

Andy

Andy,
Sorry, not possible with Project. If you have Project 2007 you can set
the field background color so it is more recognizable but for earlier
versions of Project, the best you can do is to set the font
characteristics (e.g. bold, colored, etc.).

Hope this helps.

One could also manually change the color/shape of each task bar within the
tasks you want to highlight. Works for highlighting a handful of tasks, but
is not very feasible if you're looking to highlight a group of, say, 50
tasks.
