ok, this is way too funny... I never thought Dave would have remembered my site! Nick, I am going to be hit and miss online tonight (one of my servers had a motherboard melt (ok, not melt but it may as well have)... try to catch me on IM anyway. We may be able to come up with a solution or draw from the schedule from another feis (Chicago or Cleveland perhaps). Andrew Andrew Bryan

Without seeing the error raised, it is my opinion also that the data was the source of the error. If an error was painted over the chart then the error was trapped. I will say that the chart is not the cause of the error -- the implementation was. I will pass this issue on to Chris but it may be difficult to duplicate.

The Gantt chart itself is a simple chart type that accepts 2 Y values: one for a start and end for a bar to be painted. The Dundas Chart provides a basic Gantt chart to allow the user to get the look that is desired. A Gantt series when used in combination with other Gantts series can be drawn such that it produces a similar output to MS Project. Couple this with the access that we provide to the GDI+ graphics object and you can further customize the appearance of the chart with the painting of arrows or other decorations. We have provided samples that show how to further decorate. You can take a look at some Gantt charts that are visible from our website: Dundas Chart Gallery Dundas Chart Online Sample Collection (in the Chart Samples link go to the Chart Gallery to find the Gantt chart). You can download an fully functioning evaluation version of Dundas Chart for .NET from our website. Go to our download page Thanks Andrew Bryan

The Enterprise Edition of the Dundas Chart is capable of creating Gantt Charts (a well as many others!). Our samples set even shows one with multiple tasks, progress bars and dependency arrows. Using the sample, it could easily be extended to show milestones and deadlines using markers. Additionally, the custom paint events afford you the ability to further customize the appearance of the chart. Please download an evaluation version of the chart to see for yourself.

I have no idea on that one but got one of my own... It is from a movie made in the 80's. Its claim to fame was one of the actors was a high-profile woman who died soon after the film was made. "Rock eaters eat Rock, Bar eaters eat bars -- Asshole" Name that movie. good luck Andrew
