A method of managing project time/resource data and documents in response to commands given by a user. The method includes setting up a user interface for bidirectional communication with a user of a computer system. The user interface displays symbols to the user and receives a selection made by the user via a pointer. The user interface displays several first symbols simultaneously to show project time/resource data, and several second symbols to show identifiers of the corresponding documents. Data is received about a second symbol selected by the user, and in response thereto, the user is at least provided with an opportunity to open a document corresponding to the second symbol.
