Has anyone here used any software other than Microsoft Project to produce and Gantt chart??

Need to do one for university but I dont want to go out and buy MS project for one piece of coursework!!

Any ideas??

Thanks

Done simple ones on excel in work coz the theory is straight forward enough - map the project plan in excel (dates across the top, milestones down the left and fill/colour the relevant fields/paths... I know it wont look too fancy but it does serve a purpose. Loads of folk at my place dont have MS project so Ive had to use the method before many a time .

Primavera p3 or suretrac you can get a unlimited time demo but limited to 60 activities, contact this company www.forgetrack.co.uk and ask them to send you demo copy

had the same problem at work a couple of years back with staff wanting MSProject to present simple GANTTcharts - found a bit of freeware/shareware(?) that converts an Excel s/sheet (task / start date ..end date) into GANTT format; but the name eludes me. Try a search on TUCOWS, it might still be around

Ask your Uni IT people, they may have a licensing agreement that allows free software to students. Failing that I think you can buy Project very cheap under the academic licensing scheme.
