Change Scale Dialog Box

In Project View, you can view and enter hours for resource assignments by a combination of day and month, by week, or by month. Use the Change Scale dialog box to switch from one of these scales to another. The calendar period column headings change to reflect your selection, and any existing hours in those columns are recalculated based on the new scale.
