Tips on using this forum..

(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.

Hi, when I want to show the week numbers on a construction programme in MSP 2013, the "Week 1" always go back to the start of the earliest activity, however I want to show pre-start activities i.e lead in activities before "Week 1" starts and don't seem to have a solution. I could do this very easily in MSP 2010!!!! Can anyone assist?? Thanks  - Paul

I handled this issue by setting the project start date to week one of the year in the case of 2015 I selected Jan 4.  That week became week 1 and I was looking for my project to start week 22 so I set the start milestone to this date and the weeks read correctly on a gantt chart print out.
