HELP - Modify the GREEN cells and the Tasks, and Task Lead columns. Some of the green cells contain formulas, but those formulas are just examples of ways to add automation and task dependency. You can enter values manually into the green cells, or use formulas. - The Start Date that you choose determines the first week in the gantt chart. - Change the first day of the week via cell K8 - Use the slider to adjust the range of dates shown in the gantt chart. - The number of weeks shown in the gantt chart is limited by the maximum number of columns available in Excel. - Only 34 weeks (7 1/2 months) can be shown/printed at one time, because each week uses up 7 columns. Q: The Working Days column shows "###". How do I fix that? You need to install the Analysis ToolPak add-in that comes with Excel. Go to Tools > Add-ins, and select Analysis ToolPak. Q: How do I make Task 2 start the day after the end of Task 1? Use the following formula for the start date of Task 2: =EndDate+1 where EndDate is the reference to the cell containing the end date of task 1. You can also use =WORKDAY(EndDate,1) to exclude weekends. Q: How do I add/insert tasks and subtasks? Copy the entire ROW (or a group of rows) for the type of task(s) you want to add and then right-click on the row where you want to insert the new tasks, then select Insert Copied Cells. You can copy rows from within the gantt chart, or copy rows from the Template Rows. Important Note: When inserting a new subtask after the last subtask or before the first subtask, you will need to update the formulas for calculating the Level 1 Start Date, %Complete and Duration, because the ranges won't automatically expand to include the additional row. Q: How to I calculate the Start Date for a Level 1 task based upon its subtasks? Example: If Task 1 is on row 10 and the subtasks are on rows 11-14, use the following formula: =MIN(D11:D16) Q: How do I calculate the %Complete for a Level 1 task based upon the %Complete of all of the associated subtasks? Example: If Task 1 is on row 10 and the subtasks are on rows 11-14, use the following formula: =SUMPRODUCT(F11:F14,G11:G14)/SUM(F11:F14) Q: How do I calculate the Duration for a Level 1 task based upon the largest end date of a sub task? Example: If the Level 1 task is on row 10 and the sub tasks are on rows 11-14, use the following formula =MAX(D11:D14)-C10+1 Q: How do I change the print settings? Select the entire range of cells that you want to print and then go to File > Print Area > Set Print Area. Then go to File > Page Setup or File > Print Preview and adjust the Scaling and Page Orientation as desired. Q: How do I exclude holidays? The functions WORKDAY() and NETWORKDAYS() allow you to include a list of holidays. See the Excel help (F1) for information about how to use these functions. Gantt Chart Template Pro includes a worksheet for listing all the dates of the holidays that you want to exclude. Q: How do I change the background color of the bars in the Gantt Chart? The colors used for the bars in the Gantt Chart are set using Conditional Formatting. The simplest approach for Excel 2002/2003 would be to change the colors via the color palette. Go to Tools > Options > Color tab. Or, you can select all of the cells in the Gantt Chart and go to Format > Conditional Formatting to change the colors. Q: How do I use grouping? [Feature unavailable when the spreadsheet is locked] You can expand or collapse a group of rows using Excel's "Group and Outline" feature. To define a group of rows, select the rows and go to Data > Group and Outline and select Group ...
