Calculate backwards

[Kay]

Hi
I have a set end date. From this end date I want to calculate
backwards to see when I need what.
I have all durations and work estimated so there must be a way that I
can calculate backwards.
But I don't find it
Or is it simply saying:
Finish as late as possible for each task?

Thanks
Kay

Hi Trevor and all,


Project is much richer than that.
No need to set the calculate from finish option.
Wanna know the latest dates? Simply show them (Late Start, Late Finish) -
Insert Columns does the trick
And moreover Project gently offers you the difference betwen late and early-
Total Slack
No need to calculate from finish indeed - CPM always calculates BOTH dates.
