Plain text heading in the task column?

Plain text heading in the task column?

Plain text heading in the task column?

(OP)
How do you insert a non-functional, plain text heading in the task column?

RE: Plain text heading in the task column?

(OP)
IRstuff: The minute I enter any text in the task column, MSProject includes duration, start and finish dates thus considering it a task. I just want to have a plain text heading with no dates.

The question was:
How do you insert a non-functional, plain text heading in the task column?
What kind of an answer to that is "NO"?

RE: Plain text heading in the task column?

(OP)
Well then that's dissappointing because headings are really handy - they make it easier to identify blocks of tasks. Maybe someone will find a way to do it.

Oh good! Now I'll have to see if summary task structures does what I want. Thanks.

RE: Plain text heading in the task column?

Yes, you may create your own headings in a task column. Each 'field' has a 'title'.  When you insert a column (or edit a column) you may add or edit the column's "title".  The "title" is what appears in the heading of the column.

Hope this helps you!

Dora
