How to Move a Task in Microsoft Project

‍

‍

Follow these easy steps:

‍

1. Open your Project file and navigate to the task you want to move.
2. Once your task is ready to move, you will notice a thick line. Drag it up or down to the new position.
3. Click the Task ID number (leftmost column) to select the task.
4. Then, release to drop. This usually works best when moving within the same summary task.
