You can print task reports from anywhere in Project KickStart, though it makes the most sense to print them after you have developed your tasks and arranged them in a sensible order.

Before you print task reports, you might want to widen the Task Name column in the Task List to make sure you print the complete task information. (Drag the splitter bar next to the Task Name column heading.)

To print a task report:

1. Click File on the menu bar, and then click Print Task Reports. In the Tasks step, you can click the Print Reports button instead.

The Create and Print Task Reports dialog box opens.

2. Click the list arrow and then click Task Report, Individual Assignments, or Phases, Goals, People & Obstacles.
3. Select the information you want to include in the report, as described below.
4. Preview the report and change the page setup as necessary. (See Print Preview and Page Setup.)
5. Click the Print button.

Tip

• If you have many long notes for the tasks of your project, it may be hard to read them if you select every column in the Task Reports. You should consider selecting a report with only columns for Tasks and Notes.
