Gantt View Current Date

I've got a problem with the Gantt View in Project 2003, it doesnt seem to
default to showing the current week but 5 weeks earlier.

I've tried deleting the Gantt View from the project and using the global one
again which works once but when you reopen the file it doesnt default to the
current week.

Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi RonnieFirst of all you have to delete aii format which
you can see by using Format GanttChart Wizard and then run your
project. Your Gantt Chart will done in default Gantt Chart

When is the project start date? What is the status date set to? Both
of these are set under Project/Project information.

If all else fails you can write a macro to scroll to today's date either
when the project is opened or on the touch of a button.

tried that still no luck.

It seems to keep jumping to the 21st April for some unknown reason.
Sometimes deleting the gantt chart and using the global one fixes the problem
but when saving again it resets back to 21st april....arhhhhh!

Hi,

I gave up looking for an elegant solution and recommend this:
In any module of the VBE add the following macro

Sub Auto_Open
viewapply "Gantt Chart"
editgotodate date:=vba.date
end sub

That does it
