Hello Russ,
To add to Mike's excellent reply -- have you looked at the Calendar
view in MS Project? If you wish to only show Monday through Friday
you can format the display to show a 5 day view. (Format > Timescale)
I personally only find the Calendar view useful if filtered to only
show specific tasks -- for example only showing tasks assigned to a
specific resource.
I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.
