    Question Modify Gantt Chart Dates

    Hi,

    I recently found a Gantt Chart file / template that I would like to use with one of my projects.

    In the the chart, it currently has a date range from 1997 - 1998.

    I attempted to modify the X Axis option, but do not see the area to modify the data ranges to 2011 dates. I may want to replace with Fiscal Weeks instead.

    How & where can I change these?

    I attached an example (Excel 2007) file.

    Thanks

    Re: Modify Gantt Chart Dates

    Hi,

    I think I figured out part of the issue.

    The date in the Gantt chart is some type of serial date, such as: 35793.0, which I think represents 12/29/1997.

    How do I update this to current dates? Also, if I rather use Fiscal Weeks, instead of dates, how or where can I change this in the file?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    To help convey my questions better, I made a 1-slide presentation?

    I have 2 questions:

    1) How to change or update the serial number or integer (not sure which this is) to current dates within my table or to use Fiscal Weeks

    2) How can I space out my tasks & still continue to show all tasks.

    Please see slide & advise.

    Thank you.

    Oops,

    It doesn't look like a '.pptx' file was accepted when attempting to upload. Here's a Word doc.

    Thanks

    Hi Everyone,

    It took a while, but I finally figured out what these serial numbers meant & how to use them.

    Thanks for the help....
