For VISIO 2003: I would like to know if there is any way to display the week
numbers on the visio timelines.

Yes WapperDude. I did not find the function either. However, it is
incomprehensible to me that VISIO allows to divide the timeline in weeks, but
does not give possibility to write the week number. In the business world,
week numbers are often used in many project timelines.
Do you know if VISIO 2007 allows to write week numbers? By the way: Thanks
for replying :)

Sorry. As far as I can tell, the functionality has not been changed. I know
there is still the earliest date restriction of 1900 because it's tied to the
operating system. Perhaps Microsoft believes there is no history prior to
that time. Puts a new twist on young earth view point. :)

Where 'week numbers, quarters, etc.' are a normal part of project tools (ms
project, project workbench, etc.), they are not normally a part of
diagramming tools such as Visio. It's not an uncommon request.

It is just dumb: They are giving me two tools - one to plan the project, and
other to present the project. These tools are but not coherent! How can such
thing happen? And it seems this incoherent nature of microsoft office will be
seen in generations to come.

Anyway, does anyone know of any add-in that can help us present weeks on the
timeline? Or is it possible to write such a program?
