Hello,

In MS Project I can place formulas in non standard columns
(Tekst1..Tekst20 etc). Can I somehow place formulas in standard
columns as well (e.g. in column "Start", "Duration" etc)?

Sorry, no. Those so-called standard columns are there for standard
purposes (to gather input form you, show results of computations
programmed by Project not you, etc.)

Benedykt,
Rob already answered your post but what exactly are you trying to do?
Very likely there is another approach and perhaps we can be of help.

No way. And also no need to do it.

For instance I want to calculate duration of tasks. I want to not
enter them manually, but to calculate them from some non standard
columns. So far I do it by calculating calculated duration in some non
standard column and then copying it as a link to a standard "duration"
column - but I'd like to do it smarter way.
