I am creating a project plan with multiple milestone levels. (1/2/3/4/5).

I was wondering how best to reflect the milestone levels in the Gantt view 
differently, instead of them all appearing black diamonds and being 
indistinguishable.

Level 1 - Black diamonds
Level 2 - Blue diamonds
Level 3 - Red diamonds...etc

Really apprecaite your help and input

Thanks

You can tie milestone formats to Flag fields.  The easiest way would be to 
use one flag field for each outline level.  Add the following formula to 
Flag1-Flag5.

IIF([Outline Level]=1,Yes,No) - then repeat for each level desired.

Then, copy the Gantt View to make a new custom view.  Doubleclick on the 
Gantt Chart area to get the bar styles.  Scroll down until you see the milestone 
settings.  Add a couple of rows, format as you would like, and add the following 
criteria for each row: Milestone, Flag1 - changing the specific flag field 
for each of the levels.

That should do it....note that best practice recommends changing not only 
the color but also the shape - to enable black & white printing and equal 
access for our color-blind colleagues.
