How to display resources on tracking Gantt Chart bars

[Robert G]

This is MSP 2007. I’ve created about twenty sub projects and each of them has unique WBS number. And the Gantt chart bars show start date and end date. What I’m trying to do is display resource names on top of Gant Chart bars.

Is that possible? If yes, please let me know how I can do the same. Thank you.

Just try out the following steps:

• Start by clicking on Format, click Bar Styles.
• Now click the Critical task bar definition and then Text tab.
• Here at the top select Resource Names.

Now repeat this for the Task definition. See if it works.

choose all tasks then

choose Format > Bar Styles

see "Task" bars and "Critical Task"

To add the Task Name to any of those bars:

click the "Text" tab at the bottom of
the dialog box.

pick up 1 of 5 places you may position information from
fields: Left, Right, Top, Bottom, and Inside.

click in the Left area and from the drop-down select Name from the list of fields.

finally click OK!
