Create a new Project

You can always create a new project from a template or another project. But if you need to start fresh, you can create a blank project file:

Click File > New > Blank Project.

That gives you a blank canvas to work on. If you’re not sure what to do next, read on.

Note: For a quick introduction to more basic tasks in Project, see Project Quick Start.

What to do with your new project

• Set the project start or finish date

• Set the name or title and other file properties

• Add tasks

• Show the project summary task
