Show task hierarchy

[Deluth]

Hi. I am tracking a project across different groups. When I bring up the Resource Usage view to see all the tasks, I only see the actual task, I don't see the parent tasks. Is there a way I can see the parent tasks on the same line with the actual task so that I can differentiate the tasks between all the different categories that the resource is doing?

Example: category1->category2->category3->task name

Hi,

Not in Project, but if you write VBA code to export the data to Excel, you
can add whatever data you want.

For any version of Project use public.project
For any version of Project Server use public. project.server

Below is a VB function that taskes a 'task' object and returns a string showing the path withing the project plan where that task resides. It's used in our Project Assistant application to build reports of task details and thought it may be helpful for your use as well

For Project Assistant application, goto

Public Function Get_Hierarchy(Item As Task) As Strin
On Error GoTo Hel

Dim Hierarchy As Strin
Dim Index As Tas
Set Index = Item.OutlineParen
D
If Index = 0 Then Exit D
Hierarchy = Trim(Index.Name) & " \ " & Hierarch
Set Index = Index.OutlineParen
Loo

If Hierarchy <> "" The
Get_Hierarchy = Hierarch
Els
Get_Hierarchy = "This is a root task
End I

Exit Functio
Hell
Get_Hierarchy = "
End Function
