On Views

[Rich S]

I'm using project pro 2007 and project server. We are consolidating a lot of
projects into a master project. I've created custom fields (org, PM, and
phase) and created the tables to fill them. I've learned there is a big
difference between project fields and task fields on custom fields. To do
what I need, I am using TASK fields as the difference is at the task level
(phase of project) ie design, code, test.
I want to create a calendar view, and hve colors by project as I display the
phase it is in ( so I can show visually the differenct projects in a certain
time period)
Seems there is no coloring of tasks in the view? is that true??

Hi Rich,

MS Project has the abiltiy to have conditional formating allowing you to
change the font and backcolour under certain cyrcumsdances ( e.g. if summary
task). I would check this out and see if this does the job for you.

Project views in PWA cannot have any task color change sorry.
Hope this will help
