Default Microsoft Project - Help!

Hi

I have 2 problems.
The 1st is that when starting a new project, if I put a duration of 1 day in, the bar show 3 days. I guess my template is confirgured wrong?

The 2nd problem is that I used an existing programme to overcome problem 1. I've now found that when printing, the bars on the timeline do not show..

Nobody in my company appears to be an expert on Project, can anyone help? :

Thanks

Nick

1st problem -- what is resourcing set to ... if you have it set at 3/4hrs a day it will take 3 days duration -- Are you entering duration or working time.

2nd problem -- does the timeline section show at all either on the screen or on the print ... if you add a milestone (duration 0 days) does the black diamond show on the screen or print

Thanks for your help. Yes resourcing was set wrong!

I managed to sort problem 2 out - as I had based a new workbook on a 2yr old programme, the start date was set to Jan 07, therefore it was only printing what it could see in the "2007" window.
Doh.
Thanks again.
