1st paragraph The book describes "Task Mode" and indicates that it is present
in the display. It is not and it will not ever be from what I can tell
of a blank project template. This would have made a good
opportunity to introduce simple modifications to the template.
For instance, I found that you can hide and unhide columns but
apparently can't fully delete them. Further, I have found no way
to move a column. The only solution I have found is to position
the pointer at the insertion point, right click, and choose "Insert a
column". Since this is subtly different from say Excel, it needs to
be pointed out and this would have been the place to do it.

Step 3. The "Actions" button appears next to the Resource Names field
