- Project saves elements you customize…in your active Project file.…If you create new ones,…by default Project saves them in your global template…and your active Project file.…To see how all of this works,…let's start by looking at what view and table…I have applied here.…On the TASK tab, I click the bottom half…of the Gantt Chart button.…The check mark next to Gantt Chart…tells me that I have the Gantt Chart view applied.…If I go to the VIEW tab and click the Tables button,…there's a check mark in front of the Entry table…so I have the Entry table applied.…
Let's make some changes to the Entry table.…I'm going to drag the vertical divider in the view…all the way over to the right…so I can see the columns in this table.…The first change that I'm going to make…is I'm going to take out the Successors column.…I'm going to right click the heading…and then on the shortcut menu,…choose Hide Column.…On the other hand, I want to insert the Work column…in between Duration and Start…so I'm going to right click the Start heading…
