Color code a symbol in a column
I have created a stoplight chart. I want to color code an entry that is in a column. I want the color to be red if it is an internal deliverable and blue if it is an external deliverable. Is this possible?

Only part of schedule appears in PowerPoint
I used the Copy All Pages to PowerPoint feature to get my schedule into PowerPoint. Only part of each page of the schedule appears in PowerPoint. Any ideas?

Standard curtains for all my projects
I would like the same curtains to appear on all of my schedules. How can I do this?
