Super easy to understand. I like this tutorial so much. I really appreciate it and have subscribed to your YT channel. Thx Adriana.
I have some questions below. Hope you could show to us.
1. How to get the progress %, is it any formula to get this value? Could you share the formula?
2. How to set it to auto-change color on the End date based on the Past Date or Due Soon? Is it any formula to set?

Thank you, Adriana, this has been very helpful. Just one question: I can't do all you're showing us here on the 'online Excel' (I'm using SharePoint and need to have this stuff online). The issue starts at 1:55—there's no option in the online Excel. Thank you for advice.

Great Course....thanks for the information. BTW is there a way to incorporate the percentage into the video or is that basically just a simple assessment to add manually?

Can you add dependencies?
● start to finish
● finish to start
● start to start
● finish to finish

How about other types of restraints?

Resources calendar(s)?

[jashannikhanj]

I am not able to change my dates into numbers. Can you suggest something?

[kishenwhabi]

Hi Adriana. Total newbie here, so…does this work on G-sheets?

[picklepixelpaperpepper]

I was curious, so I looked it up
A Gantt chart is a bar chart that illustrates a project schedule.
It was designed and popularized by Henry Gantt by 1915
GANTT is not an acronym; it doesn't stand for anything, and I totally thought it did.
