RE: Linking Project to Visio

Hi Geoff,

Thank you for your question.

It would probably be better to do it the other way round.

Open up Visio and create a new Gantt drawing found in the Project Schedule Template. On the toolbar, you should find the Gantt bar menu. Click the menu and choose 'Import'.

Now follow these steps:

1. On the page of the Wizard, select 'Information that's already stored in a file'.

2. Select Microsoft Office Project File.

3. Browse for the mpp file and on the next page select the time scale and duration format.

Then select the task types to include in the Visio Gantt Chart.

Click Finish to create a Visio Gantt Chart with the properties you specified in the wizard.

I hope this helps and answers your question.

Regards

Simon
