    Hi,

    I can't see any tool in P6 to highlight the activity. But if you are really after only 5 activities, you can create WBS for that and add the real activity under each related one. Then just print the WBS lavel 1 only. Don't forget to tick "Show group summaries" in group and sort tab for display option.

    Hope this will help.

    Cheers

    Hi,

    If you use filter and check the box to highlight the activities which match the criteria, this will only highlight your activities on screen only. You can't print like that i.e when you select to print all will be with same background and font colour.

    The easiest and best method will be just use highliter or if you want to make it look nice use Adobe Pro and highlight the cell.

    Hope this will help.

    Hi Raymund,

    If the print screen option allows you to print all the required columns and time scale bar clearly then it will be an option but still I will prefer to use highlighter pen or Adobe Pro for this kind of task. Print screen will not print enough information all the time. Say for example you want around 10-12 columns and time scale as well. I would not recommand that option. But at the end it depends upon case by case.

    Cheers
