Re: Unformatting Direct Formatted text in Project 2003

Hi Cadking,

Does this happen with other projects? If it is only this one, then I would
suspect corruption. Have a look at the suggestions in FAQ Item: 43.
Handling project file corruption and/or bloat.

FAQs, companion products and other useful Project information can be seen at
this web address:http://project.mvps.org/faqs.htm

Hope this helps - please let us know how you get on :-)

The problem is that I can't even remove bold type off a single cell.
Project doesn't let change the format of anything. For instance, I
can't change the color of a cell that is colored green to
"automatic". I may have to save the file as a copy, delete some
tasks, see if Project will then allow me to remove formatting from
some other cells, then add the deleted cells back in.

Select all the appropriate tasks then format them back to the
default all in one go.

I have certain cells I want to format, but I've reached the max
number of cells that can be Direct Formatted. The error message
directs me to remove
the Direct Formatting from other cells to clear up space. Anyone
know how to
do this in Project?
