Formatting in MS Project

Microsoft has a few out of box formatting features when it comes to managing your projects. Some of the features are similar to Excel.

 

For Example if you want to see what tasks are late you can highlight or filter only on Late tasks.

To do so, click the View tab, and select the drop down for either Highlighting or filter.
