Add pages to the schedule
How do I add a page to my schedule?

Add tasks from Microsoft Project to an existing schedule
I have a Milestones schedule which I imported from Microsoft Project. Now, I would like to add several tasks to the schedule without re-importing. What’s the best way to do this?

Add text to a horizontal bar
I want to have text inside a horizontal bar on my schedule. Is this possible?

Add, Move, and Delete Freeform Text
Is there a way to add another header to the chart other than the title?

Copy the structure of a schedule only
Could you tell me if it is possible to copy the structure of a schedule without the data?.

Duration Values for Single Milestones
Why does a single milestone automatically have a 0-day duration instead of 1 day?

Remove the border
How can I remove the border around the schedule?

Fiscal and calendar quarters
How can I have fiscal quarters and calendar year quarters, as shown below?

Copy toolbox rows
My schedule has several different colored bars. I want to set one up in the toolbox and then copy all the settings to another row so that I can then just set the colors. Is this possible?

Make some of the date headings longer
I want to make some of the headings (monthly headings at top of chart) longer in length so I can space out the symbols for that month.

Hyperlink from schedule to document
I need to add a page of text explaining why any scheduled date has changed. Is there a way I can link “Milestones” to a “Word” document?

Create a template to use in with Microsoft Project
I want to create a single template I can use for multiple Microsoft Project files. Can I do this or do I have to have a template for each Microsoft Project file?

Copy a task row from one schedule to another
How can I copy a task row from one Milestones schedule to another?
