About Task Dependencies Properties

Use the Dependencies tab on the Task Properties dialog box to add or remove task dependencies. To view this tab, in a view that displays the task detail pane, right-click the task and select Dependencies from the shortcut menu.

This tab displays a hierarchical list of existing dependencies between the task you have selected and other tasks on the project. Use this tab to create, modify, or delete dependency relationships, and to review the task's name, relationship, dependency type, and the amount of lag. You can also apply dependencies to more than one task using this tab.

The tab's Dependencies grid displays the following icons that you can use to identify the task's dependency relationships:

BOW--Predecessor--ICO Predecessor

The predecessor icon indicates the task is a predecessor to the selected task.

BOW--Successor--ICO Successor

The successor icon indicates the task is a successor to the selected task.
