    I use 2003, but i assume this

    I use 2003, but i assume this will be the same as 2007.

     

    If you go to the task information box for this "milestone", under advanced tab there is a check-box called "Mark task as milestone"

    If this is checked, the task will appear as a milestone on the gant chart even though it has a duration, % complete, resources, etc

     

    To correct, you can choose to either uncehck this ox and treat the task as an activity, or set the duratino to zero and treat it like a milestone.

     

    I have never understood why MS Project allows for this functionality. It seems quite peverse.
