A grid of a thousand rows is a haystack. Here are views, sorting, filters and Find: the magnets.

Save as view keeps the set under a name. It is yours, for this schedule. The chip now names it. Switch views, and the grid follows.

Views lists yours, for this schedule only, with Rename and Delete beside each. Click a header to sort. Inside the WBS, children sort under their parent; the structure stays.

Untick WBS in View for a flat list: no groups, every activity in one order. In View, File order drops the sort: rows return as the file had them, level by level.

Filter: Critical only, a status, open ends, one WBS branch, one owner. Critical only leaves the chain that sets the finish.

Type in Find activities. Filter to matches hides the rest, but keeps each match's parents. Clear filters, and every row is back.

Deleting a view asks first: Delete confirms, and there is no undo.

That was views. Next in the Guide: the Gantt, the chart that sits beside the grid.
