I would really like to purchase the paid version of the Excel file Gantt Chart but I am concerned about something I would like it to do but am not if it will. I downloaded the free version of the excel file and have been using it but came to a point where the original working days was say only 14, but now it has been 24 days and the task is still only 80% complete, your red column indicator for “today’s date” is past the end date grey box for that task but there is no color for representing days over. I would really like to see the today’s column be yellow and the days over be red instead of white. Is that possible? I will purchase the paid version if it is.
great work…i found certain excel templates similar to this model but this one’s definitely better..I downloaded the free trial version for my next project that I’m heading.Some questions..
1.How do I add Action Owners & Priority of the task…and if possible the hand off/Training hours for a project?
2.What about the option of Inserting the company’s Logo at left top corner in place of name?
3.What’s with the WBS–Work Breakdown Structure used in some templates?How is it different than those?
But nothing takes away ur effort…amazing work..
waiting for the response…
1. It’s essential that I format an Excel chart in months – not days. Can this be accomplished with the trial version? If not, can it be accomplished with the purchased version?
2. Will anyone with Excel be able to open a chart file? Or will an emailed recipent need to download your spreadsheet in order to view the chart?
How do we exclude saturday and sunday in the end date calculation? We added all the holidays on the holiday sheet do we have to modify a formula somewhere so it will recognize all the holidays. Once we add in the Analysis ToolPack do we have to do anything else or will it automatically update the working days field?
