Dates in MS Project
Hello Team, Is there an easy way to insert the date automatically when inserting a new Task? I want to record the date of when I entered the task.

What I am unclear about is whether you want to capture the date the task was entered in the project, or to have Microsoft Project automatically capture the Start date and Finish date of the task. If it is the latter, refer to the excellent advice offered by my esteemed colleague, John. If it is the former, Microsoft Project includes a default column named Created, which will automatically capture the date the task was created in the schedule. Hope this extra helps.
