Split Duration

Duration can be calculated as the sum of the individual time spans on a task line. Whether or not duration is "split" is specified on the Tools/Options menu Project Management tab.  Instead of the duration being calculated as the total time span, the duration of the individual bars are computed and then added together to get the total duration for the task line.
