What do the indicators on the Tasks page mean?

Applies to: Microsoft Office Project Server 2007

The Tasks page displays your assigned tasks (task: An activity that has a beginning and an end. Project plans are made up of tasks.) and may display a number of graphical indicators (indicators: Small icons representing information for a task or resource that are displayed in the Indicators field. The Indicators field is located to the right of the ID field and appears in a number of tables.). The following table describes these indicators and their meanings.
