Views are the means by which you display a project plan and other project data. You can use views to enter project data, add or delete tasks, and otherwise modify a project plan. Open Workbench provides standard views, sorts, filters, and highlights to display, enter, and organize project information.
You can apply views, sorts, filters, and highlights to see different aspects of your project and access specific project information. The Open Workbench window displays a Library that contains views which you can apply to projects. The view that is set as the default view is automatically displayed in this window, even if you have not opened a project. If you have not set your default view, this window is blank.
Project data is displayed in views that take the form of spreadsheets, which can use Gantt charts to graphically display project status and task relationships, or Critical Path Method (CPM) Network views, which display task relationships and the project’s critical path. Most of the predefined views in Open Workbench are spreadsheet views. CPM Network views display in an organizational chart format, with the boxes representing task dependencies rather than organizations.
Both types of views use field names in their definitions to determine what data they display, and both are created in the View Definition dialog box. Each type displays project information in a different format.
