Now that we have covered all the things that make up a view ”fields, tables, filters, and groups ”we can cover the relatively simple task of creating views. There are single views and combination views. Single views show one view across the entire screen. A combination view is really just a view that is a collection of two other views: one showing in the upper part of the screen, and the other in the lower part.

Creating Single Views

Select View, More Views and click the New button on the More Views dialog.

Select Single View.

Click OK.

Give your view a name .

Select the kind of view you want to create. (Gantt Chart, Resource Sheet, Usage, Network Diagram, and so on).

Select the table your view will use.

Select the group your view will use. (Choose No Group if you do not want any grouping.)

Select the filter your view will use. (Choose No Filter if you want no filter to be applied to the view.)

Select the Highlight Filter option if you want the filter to highlight the items that meet its criteria instead of hiding those items that do not meet its criteria.

Decide whether this view should appear in the View menu and on the View bar control.

Click OK when you are finished to save your new view.

Creating Combination Views

Click View, More Views and then click the New button on the More Views dialog.

Select Combination View.

Click OK.

Give your new view a name.

Select a view for the Top section.

Select a view for the Bottom section.

Decide whether your new view should appear in the View menu and on the View bar.

Click OK to save your new view.
