Automatic population of tasks
G'day again,
two hours after my first question and I thought of another one. :/
Just to rehash - I'm trying to learn to use ProjectLibre to help my husband start his own home business. I am sure I will have a lot of question, but I promise I will spend many hours googling for the answer before resorting to asking questions on here.
In case you require it, I am running Lion on Macbook Pro. I am currently trying to teach myself Open Office 4.0 in Base and Calc as well, and will use those programs too in the running and planning of my husbands business.
I can input data easy as pie, but coding and changing the program insides is beyond me, so please speak "non-techie" to me. :D
My question this time - is it possible to input a master task and have the child tasks self-populate? For example, I have projects A,B,C and D, with Master tasks 1,2,3 and 4 and child tasks 1.1, 2.1,2.2, 4.1. If Project A has Master Tasks 1 and 3, is there a way I can set it up so that the child task 1.1 automatically appears on the tasks sheet? In this example, its not a hassle because there aren't many Master or Child tasks, but in real life there are about 10 projects with between 10-15 Master tasks, and each has between 3 and 8 child tasks dependant on each. Tha leads to much repetitive data input.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
