(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Does anyone know how to display week numbers for the duration of a project along the timescale in Powerproject?

The drop down menu does not give it as an option?

Hi Lee

Read what Chris told you and set the start date to zero at week 1.

It also helps if you set the same start date in File > properties.

Best regards

Many thanks for your replys.

It seems to show Week No. 1 as -1? and if you change it to the week before the print preview shows starting on Week No.2?

Has anyone encountered this?

Mike is correct about the elapsed unit but if you need to change the week 1 position, right click in the date zone and go to Properties. Go to the Date/Scale tab and change the date zero date to where you want week 1 to start from.

Hi Lee

Right click the date zone - click Insert Line - select Elapsed Units

Move the line up or down to the required postion.
