Formatting Calendar View

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance


Can anyone help with these?

After making a gantt chart for an entire project, I paste the links to
a new project for each employee and print out calendar view schedules
for them. They prefer the ease of reading this view rather than a gantt
chart. I have 3 problems:

1. Split tasks don't show as split in calendar view, even though I see
a "split pattern" option under bar styles.

2. I can't find a way to stop the task bar for tasks that end on a
Friday from running over the weekend boxes. And, tasks that end on a
certain day spill over half day past the due date, causing confusion.

3. When I have too many linked tasks, the calendar simply won't show
them all, I assume because they are stacked and there isn't enough
space. Even when I change the font to 6 point so I can hand-move them,
I can't get them all to show.

Thanks for your time.
