Lesson 2 – Using More Customization Features

Project 2013

12. Create a custom task table by copying the Schedule table. Call the new table Schedule2 and insert the Resource Names field as the last field in the table. Left- align the field data and set the width to 25 . Apply the table to the current view. 13. Drag the split bar as necessary to view the resource name information. 14. Create a custom outline code for the tasks called Cost Codes . ( Hint: Use the Custom Fields dialog box.) 15. The mask for the code is five characters for level one and two numbers for level two, separated by a dash (-). For the third level, the format is two numbers, without a separator between the second and third level. ( Hint: Select the Separator field for level two and press [Backspace] .) 16. Insert the Outline Code1 (Cost Codes ) field, with a width of 12 , to the left of the Task Name field. Enter the codes for the following tasks (use capitalization where appropriate since the format is characters, not uppercase letters):
