Using Excel charts for a yearly planning visual.

[Guest]

I currently have work catagories with dates set for planning work into the next year. Is there a way to utilize excel charts to utilize a visual chart? Each catagory has beginning dates and end dates that I would like to display on a yearly baseline.

It also contains links to lots of other resources for doing gantt charts.

Cheers
