Re: Project 2007: how do I change indicated names of variables?

Hi Julie,

Unfortunately, it does not work, since also in the copy of "Standard", I am only offered a selection of the original variables , the names of which I cannot change. That is exactly the problem: I would like to use the content of the variable. Therefore, its software name must not be changed. It is only the label that I would like to change.

Anyway, thank you for looking into the problem.

Werner

Hello,

You can change the labels on the Network diagram. It's a bit more work, but can be done. The steps follow:

Display the Network Diagram View
Choose Format > Box Styles to show the Box Styles dialog
Each box style is listed (Critical, Noncritical, Critical Milestone, etc.)
Select the box style you wish to change.
You'll find the Data template used in many circumstances is "Standard" and unfortunately, that template is not editable.
However, you can select the Standard Template and copy it.
Copy the template and rename.
In the Data Template Definition dialog you can select each cell in the box and in the "Show label in cell" enter whatever label you prefer.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Hello Julie,

It worked fine for the Gantt chart, but it does not work for the netplan diagram. What a pitty. Any other idea?

Thank you,
Werner

Hello Werner Markus,

If you just wish to change the column headings (for display purposes), double click on the column heading and in the "Title" area, type in the new labels you'd like to see.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Hallo NG,

For demonstration purposes, I must change the indicated names of some variables into another language, e.g. "finish" -> "Ende", or I must change "currency" into "WU". How could I do tha?

Thanks, Werner
