    Hi Kumar I'm not aware if

    Hi Kumar

     

    I'm not aware if there is such a function, but a quick solution to your problem is as follows:

    1) Insert a text user column, e.g. "Text1"

    2) Copy the entire "Task Name" column

    3) Paste in "Text1"

    4) Rename "Text1" as required

    5) Hide/move the original "Task Name" column so not visible when printing

    6) Print

     

    You could also make a formula in "Text1" so it automatically copied and updated the value of "Task Name", meaning you didn't have to think about copying and pasting every time you modified your programme.

     

    Regards,

    Bo

    Kumar,

    a much easier way to do:

    1. in MS Project 2003/2007: go to Tools, Options, View, then unckeck the option "Indent name" at the bottom of the dialog box

    2. in MS Project 2010: the same option is available in the Quick Access Toolbar, "More Commands"
