Can somebody give me hints and tips for using this
Thanks,

MAke sure the project is correctly setup from the start . It defaults to 0800 - 1700 hrs
Use it as a planning tool , not a reportin tool , unless you are tracking the project.
Spec all jobs in hours , be aware that 7 days is not one week.
Fun program , and can cause headaches.

I strongly recommend getting a book and working through it.
Although it appears simple on the surface there is a lot of subtle depth in project. Unless you understand some of the basic workings and default assumptions it may lead you astray in its calculations.
As per above getting it set up as you want it before you start is essential to avoid errors.
Project 2000 in easy steps, ISBN 1-84078-114-9 is a good starting point.
