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.

Barry,

 

Planned Dates are your Baseline Dates.  When you display Baseline Schedule bars in the Gantt View, you are showing the other schedule’s Planned Dates.   Be careful what you do with these dates as they have the ability to automatically overwrite other date & duration columns.  Good luck!
