Change calendar but working time stays the same
Thanks for your response. I have my project set up so that working time is M-F 8-12 and then 1-5. For this task I want to have the working time be 24 hours a day. I'm giving it a duration of 90 days but it's not counting weekends. For some reason when I change the calendar for this particular task it doesn't actually adjust dates. I can't for the life of me figure this out. John-project

That's how I have it set up. I have the calendar set up to work a 7 day week but for some reason when i apply the calendar to that task it doesn't change the start and finish dates. I've deleted the task and readded it, I've tried changing to other calendars and then back to this one. Nothing seems to be working. John-project

Sorry but that is NOT the way you have it set up. You entered 90 days in the Duration field and by definition (default), a "day" is 8 hours so the duration for your task is measured in work days. In my example, I show 90 edays which gives 90 elapsed (i.e. calendar) days.
This example perhaps explains it more clearly. I changed the display option to show the time so it's easier to see what's going on.
