I have switched to tracking view with the task sheet. I eneterd a
completion of 100% for task 3 (interview subject) since I have marked this
task complete my actual duration is now 2.07 days and my remaining durations
is 54.93 days. The task took 2 days to complete. The overall phase consists
of 8 days. Where are these decimals coming from? The computer says actual
duration is calculated by duration x percent complete.
