Well that's all I got, that's Project 2007, at least the VTC look at Project 2007, this should get you up and running with this Swiss army knife of an application to help you better manage your projects. What we've done here through out this tutorial is kind of taken you from no experience with Project 2007 up to an fairly good working knowledge of how the application works and how it might make you a more efficient project manager. So in that effort we have started with the creation of a brand new project from scratch and then we've added tasks to that project. We added resources to then get those tasks accomplished and then once we add the resources we start to arrive at figures like the cost, we look at the duration of a task, we look at how much work and how much effort goes into a task. So we spend a lot of time fine tuning tasks, fine tuning resources, talking about the task types for example whether they be effort driven or whether they be a fixed work task or a fixed duration task and things like that. We've looked at different types of resources, whether they be cost resources or material resources or just simply work related or work resources which is going to be probably the vast majority of the resources that you configure. We then talked about items like tracking project progress once the project is in motion, comparing actual work versus baseline type of work and being able to measure whether a project is staying under budget or is going to hit it's configured deadlines. We've also looked at some topics that had to do with sharing and collaborating with information, so we've combined multiple projects here. We have shared information, we've taken information in, that's in project because project is a huge database of project related information and how did we get that information to other people. How did we work with that in other applications, how can we can get the information we have so it has meaning for other people who are involved, reporting the saving stuff as pictures printing and things like that. And finally we ended up with some tips and tricks, some ways that you can use the program more efficiently which in turn, of course the goal is to make you more efficient in your job. I want to thank you for your attention and for picking up this tutorial, I'll leave you with my contact information in the next module and in that module I'll also state what I'm about to state now which is please feel free to contact me with any project related questions that you have.
