How to display the Early Start and Early Finish dates and hours in a single row
Status: Reviewed
Version(s): 3.x



Problem: How to display the dates and hours in a single row in an hourly schedule
Problem: No matter how big the column width is, the hour is always displayed on a second line.
Fix: 1. Go to Data, Custom Data Items and create two Activity level Custom Data Items with the following attributes.

Name: ESHR     Type: C     Length: 15     Description: Early Start Hour
Name: EFHR     Type: C     Length: 15     Description: Early Finish Hr


2. Go to Tools, Global Change. Add and run a new Global Change with the following conditions.


IF           AS         EQ     ” “

THEN     ESHR     EQ     STDATE(ES)
THEN     EFHR     EQ     STDATE(EF)

ELSE      ESHR     EQ     STDATE(ES)     &     ” A”
ELSE      EFHR     EQ     STDATE(EF)     &     ” A”



Note: The STDATE() function converts a date field to a string or text field.  ES and EF in parentheses stands for Early Start and Early Finish respectively and defines the date to be converted.


3. Go to Format, Columns and display ESHR and EFHR in the layout instead of Early Start and Early Finish.


NOTE: The hours displayed are in 24 hour format.
