Vacation in MS Project
When you mentioned vacations I assumed you meant time off for individual resources as that is what we in the US call a vacation. But it sounds like you are really talking about country/company holidays which apply to all resources.
To set up a custom calendar, first create a new calendar, perhaps based on the Standard, as I show here. I've also edited the work week to show work hours from 7:00 to 16:00 with a hour for lunch break.
Then I added a company summer shut down week in July. As as many exceptions as needed to cover the current and future years.
Hope that helps to get you started.

John-project I am using the standalone desktop version.
Yes, I am using the "change working time"-icon. (I am using the Norwegian version, so I just translated it wrong, sorry).
I see. I want to change it for the project, and not for the resources. Hopw can I do this?
Thank you for your help:)
