Note in PowerPoint 2007 you can have access to a wide range of pre set templates and colour combinations, it makes a lot of the older templates look "out-dated" by comparison.

Red RAG to a bull [ Red Amber Green Graphic Indicators]

Hi all
Just done a Project 2003 course and we discovered you can set up graphical indicators for your Project Tasks or overall Project status such as a red dot for Warning, Amber and green dot aswell !

I will document the process in a later Blog, but its a New Custom Field then choose Graphical indicators, when the user selects a drop down option such as R, A or G it uses a graphic instead of text.

A more interactive approach lets you copy a Number column such as Cost or Variance and Paste link it over the top of the indicator column so it keeps changing dependant on the numbers linked to it.

more to follow ...
