I know I should have saved my original baseline as the ’baseline’ AND ’baseline 1’ and in future always have the ’baseline’ be the equivalent of the latest saved baseline, so it is the one displayed in the tracking gantt.
However, I did not do this at the outset of the project and since then dates and tasks have significantly changed.
I therefore have a few questions:
1) Is it possible to tell MS Project to make what is currently saved in the ’baseline’ also ’baseline 1’? (I seem to have been able to do this by saving an interim plan based on ’baseline’ in ’baseline 1’ and it did ask me if I was sure that I wanted to overwrite the current ’baseline 1’ - however, I have not been able to verify that this was successful as I cannot seem to be able to view any baseline other than the one saved as _the_ ’baseline’, which brings me to my second question...)
2) How can I view the dates and gantt chart associated with any of the baselined plans (e.g. ’baseline 1’ or ’baseline 2’)
3) Can I tell the tracking gantt to show tracking against a particular baseline (e.g. ’baseline 1’ instead of ’baseline’?)
Many thanks to anyone who may be able to provide the answers to these questions.
