Can I color code the font for task names in calendar view??

Hi mjbjfi,

The formatting choices for text in the calendar view are very limited.
The Format > Text Styles command will show what types of tasks
(critical, noncritical, etc.) that you can format.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

The flexibility of color coding found in the 'Gannt timeline' view would be
valued highly in the calendar view. Calendar view is very intutitive to non
MS project users.

Hello Soapman,

I agree that the Calendar view is helpful from a presentation stand
point to people who find Gantt charts baffling. However, the
Calendar view is not terribly useful when dealing with multiple
tasks (usually more than 4-5) which span the same time frame. What
I find useful for individual users is to filter a Calendar view
showing only tasks assigned to a particular resource. Then print
the view, re-filter for the next resource and repeat the process.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.
