Enhancement Request - Lock User Entries Available on DropDown Control
1. A toggle control on the dropdown that prohibits the user from just typing any old thing in there....ruins the integrity of my data. Toggle on locks it, toggle off means user can either select from the drop down or type their own entry.
Enhancement Request - Conditional Formatting on Gantt Bars
Change the color of a Gantt bar dependent on a checkbox or other common status indicators.
Enhancement Request - Ability to Edit Templates
Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere... Requesting the ability to modify a template directly and re-save or save-as. It's a pain to go to an existing sheet, copy, strip all the data, resave, etc.
