Way to look at % complete of predecessors
jackie
I would like to find out what is the most efficient way to check the status
of the predecessors of any tasks in the plan
I have a plan with a large number of tasks and for instance task 540, has 10
predecessors each at different stages of completion scattered throughout the
plan. Currently if I want to know how each predecessor is progressing I need
to locate the predecessor manually, and I would be grateful for some advice
on how to do this more efficiently
Many thanks

of its predecessors), then make a filter which returns all flagged tasks.

this task." In Project 2007 and later, there is a featue called "What's
driving my task". Although it does not give you specific %Complete, it will
provide needed information.
In addition to Trevor's excellent (and inexpensive) solution, a coded
solution is also possible. This is not freeware, but is available.

Say you have a long plan and for instance, task 640 has 10 predecessors
scattered throughout the plan. How do you efficiently look at the % complete
of each single predecessor both on screen and on hard copy? I guess online
you could always CTRL F the predecessors, (although I would prefer not to)
but on hard copy shuffling through the pages becomes quite cumbersome.
Any ideas, please?
Many thanks
