At this moment I would like to avoid VBA because I don't have skills for that yet. Will try with two solution mentioned below.
thank you

the other would be to put a resource against each task (use the same one, doesn't matter what it is) then reduce to 10% for 10 units. this would multiply the time required by 10 for each activity.

As Julie said, Project doesnt do it- it works with what you give it.
Thank you . Will leave excel as backup plan and try with limited resource. I guess that if I put same resource under every task and by limiting it it is should reflect on every task simultaneously. Hope it will work.
