Hi John,
Thanks for your response.

Naomi,
Not exactly the screen shot I was expecting (i.e. it doesn't show the actual Gantt Chart view), but let's check a few things.
- Are you using the default Calibri font or another font? Some fonts cause issues with row heights.
- In your initial post you said the row height was set to 1. Do you really mean the bar height (Gantt Chart Format > Format group > Layout > Bar Height)?
- Go to, Gantt Chart Format > Bar styles group > Format > Bar Styles. In the Bar Styles sub-window is the Row column set to 1 for all entries?

Sorry is this a better image?
Font is Calibri.
Rows are all set to 1 in bar styles.
Bar height was 12 but I've changed it to 6 (lowest option available) however nothing seems to have changed when I did this
