Discussion

Microsoft Project presents information in a variety of view formats. However, you may be unable to find a view that meets your particular needs. You can create a custom single or combination view to display the information you need. Creating custom views enables you to quickly access the information that best meets your project management needs.

To create a custom view, you can either create a new view or make a copy of an existing view and modify it. In addition, you can choose whether or not you want the view to appear on the Tables dropdown menu.
