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.

Hello all, 

I am new to this forum.

I would like to create in the table of my Gantt Chart an indicator showing if one or more resource is assigned to the task (ie green light if any resource, red if none).

i am trying to use a custom field indicator but it does not work.

Exemple : i am trying to check if the field [Resource name] is Null or not.

Any idea how to do ? 

Thanks.

Hi Tom, 

I figured it out yesterday.

IIf([Noms ressources]<>"";Oui;Non)

It works well, i do not know what i have done before ...

Thanks !

Hi Phil, Maybe you have a typo in the field name.  This works for me in a custom Flag field: IIf([Resource Names]="","No","Yes").  Then green and red stoplights based on the flag value.
