PERT box resizing.

PERT box resizing.

(OP)
I'm new to this program and currently attempting to prepare a PERT chart however, my notes are extensive and I cannot seem to resize the box to accomodate the text......help.

Thanks

RE: PERT box resizing.

Hi
If you follow these instructions you should be able to re-configure the PERT box so more space is allowed for notes.
1. Have your network diagram view shown
2. Right Click on the box you wish to change
3. Select "Format Box", then "More Templates" and "New"
4. Give the template a name, then at the Choose Cells section, click on the black cell
5. You should be able to add the cells you require.
6. If you click on "Limit cell text to" drop down arrow you can increase the number of line for notes
7. If you click on "Cell Layout" you can increase the cell width
The best option, as with all MS software, is to play around with a few options in blank new file.
Best of luck
Chris
