creating a milestone chart
Good day all.
I am trying to create a milestone chart for a Procurement Strategy, this will be a set of say 12 activities, but i want to represent the activities on the X axis and show the Dates on the Y axis with a diamond shape to indicate the actual dates. Is there a method that i can use to generate this? So if i have an activity happening on 22nd Dec 2008 i will have a diamond shape showing on that date line? Thanks all |

Thanks all Sounds to me like what you are trying to accomplish would be considered a GANTT chart. There are many templates out there with variations that you may find useful. I'd provide some links but I am getting as many Excel 2007 hits as I am previous versions. microsoft.com has a bunch of templates.... try there and let me know. (you may have to dig a little to get a diamon specifically but there are many alternative "professional" looking options out there as well. James |
