The Task Tree shows the tools in the order they run when the task runs. If you link data between tools, be
sure the data you are using originates in a tool that runs before the destination tool runs.

lapsed. Click the Expand or Collapse icon to view the branches.
Resize the task tree area: Point the cursor to the right-side border. When the pointer becomes a double-
headed arrow, click and drag the border.
Reorder tools in the task tree: To move a tool in the task tree, click and drag the tool up or down to the
desired location.
