Delete Tasks

With Microsoft Project, you can delete unneeded tasks easily. You can, for instance, delete a summary task (and all of its subtasks) or any individual task itself. After you delete a task, Microsoft Project automatically renumbers the remaining tasks.

To delete a task

You can restore a deleted task right after deleting it by clicking Undo .
  1. On the View Bar, click Gantt Chart .
  2. In the Task Name field, select the task you want to delete.
  3. On the Edit menu, click Delete Task.

For more information about summary tasks, see "Summing Up Summary Tasks" later in this chapter.
