Resource/Assignment Table
This option opens the Resource/Assignment Tables screen, which
allows you to format the appearance of the Resource/Assignment Table.
You can define any number of table layouts by clicking the
button on the toolbar in the screen. The layout that is selected when
clicking the OK button is applied.
The following table describes the fields on this screen shown below:
For each resource/assignment table layout, specify the columns you want to see in the resource/assignment table by adding them to the data grid. A row in the data grid is equivalent to a column in the resource/assignment table.

resource/assignment display. When you lock a column, all columns to the left of the selected column (or above the selected column in the data grid) will also be locked. If you unlock a column, all columns to the right of the selected column (or below the selected column in the data grid) will also be unlocked. |
| Field | Select the name of the field to be displayed from the
drop-down list.
The supplied drop-down list contains all resource-related fields, both system as well as user-defined fields, in alphabetical order.

display purposes only.
If you supply a title, the entered value overrides the default column name. Leave this field blank to display the default column name in the resource/assignment table. |
| Width | Specify the width of the column in the resource/assignment table.
The column width can also be changed directly in the resource/assignment table by dragging the column separator in the header area left or right. |
| Alignment | Specify the alignment of the value in the column.
Select a valid value from the drop-down list. The alignment does not apply to the Name column. |
