Visio 2007: Don't Get the Gantt Chart at Start-up

[Walt]

I posted an earlier question a couple of weeks ago on this same question for
Visio 2003. I did not get a good answer so I just purchased and updated to
Visio 2007. Now I feel pretty stupid as I still do not get the start-up Gantt
chart when I open a new Gantt Chart. All I get is the graph background to
start building the Gantt chart. Obviously, the upgrade Visio 2007 just copied
what ever setting that told it not to provide the start-up chart. Can someone
tell me what to do?

Thanks!

I figured it out!

Tools/Options/Advanced/Enable Automation Events

I needed to click on "Enable Automation Events".

Glad you've got it sorted. You had a response within 3 hours of
posting your question. Did you not see that? As you didn't respond it
has to be assumed that it fixed the problem. If you'd comme back and
tols us that it made no difference then we could have tried other
things. It might not have been the correct response but it did answer
the question as you posed it.
This time you've added
"All I get is the graph background to start building the Gantt chart."
which makes a big difference to the diagnosis of the problem.
