Database
The component of Microsoft Project that stores or organizes project information. You can’t see the database directly, but you can see portions of the information it contains in Microsoft Project views.
Default value
The value that Microsoft Project assigns to a field automatically. The default value appears before the user types information into the field, when the user does not type information into the field, and when the user clears the contents of the field.
Delay time
An extra amount of time inserted between dependent tasks to ease overallocation.
Divider bar
The vertical bar that separates the chart from the table or legend in the Gantt Chart, Resource Graph, and Resource Usage views.
Duration
The amount of time required to complete a task during normal working hours. Elapsed duration is the amount of time a task will take to finish, based on a 24-hour day and a 7-day week, including holidays and other nonworking days.
