From: Barry on 1 Jun 2010 09:31 I received a PDF file of a Gantt chart. It shows an * after each date in the early start column. Does this mean the date is constrained?
From: Andrew Lavinsky on 1 Jun 2010 09:53 I think that's something you see in Primavera, but I haven't seen this in Project - unless a user manually typed in the date w/ an asterisk into a text field. Are you sure you're not looking at a PDF of a Primavera schedule? I'd check with whomever sent you the original schedule. - Andrew Lavinsky Blog: http://blogs.catapultsystems.com/epm > I received a PDF file of a Gantt chart.

From: Andrew Lavinsky on 1 Jun 2010 09:57 ....to add to that last post.... Just thinking out loud, you could make this happen through formulas in MS Project. Something like a custom text field with the following formula: IIF([Constraint Date]<>ProjDateValue('NA'),[Early Start]&"*",[Early Start]) ....but I'd still check with whomever sent it to you originally. - Andrew Lavinsky Blog: http://blogs.catapultsystems.com/epm > I received a PDF file of a Gantt chart.

Thanks. I assumed the schedule was Project, but it is a Primavera schedule.
