The Date Headings

1. To change the date heading display, click once on the date heading within the schedule. This will display
the Selection menu. Optionally, choose Dates | Date Headings | Date Headings Full Dialog

4. Choose a Start number for the heading.
 This feature is useful to start a schedule on a specifi c number that does not relate directly to the dates
on the schedule. For example, if your schedule starts in January, you can use a start number of 5 to
show that January is the 5th month since the start of the contract.
5. Choose a Frequency for the heading.
 For example, in a yearly heading of a project whose start date is 1/1/2008, with a frequency of 2, the
yearly heading would be 2008, 2010, 2012, etc.
6. Choose to display the date headings at the top and/or bottom of the schedule.
