Daniel,<br>
<br>
Excel stores dates as sequential serial numbers so that they can be used<br>
in calculations. By default, January 1, 1900 is serial number 1, and<br>
January 1, 2008 is serial number 39448 because it is 39,448 days after<br>
January 1, 1900.<br>
<br>
To change the scale, click on one of the dates on the x axis, select the<br>
scale tab and type in the appropriate serial number for the date that<br>
you want on the axis.<br>
<br>
To find the serial number of a date, type it in a cell on your<br>
spreadsheet, format it as GENERAL. Then type this serial number into<br>
your scale.<br>
<br>
I've attached a copy of the file with a new scale.<br>
<br>
Good Luck!<br>

For those who indicated interest in virtual worlds for students. There<br>
is a new teacher pd coming up<br>
from Quest Atlantis. So, I have just copied and pasted the information<br>
from Bronwyn Stuckey below<br>
my signature.<br>

<br>
You should consider Quest Atlantis <a
href="http://www.questatlantis.org/">http://www.questatlantis.org</a><br>
I am the International liaison for this free program which involves<br>
games, curriculum activity, 3D design and building in a virtual world.<br>
It is is designed and managed by a team at Indiana University and the<br>
only 'cost' for entry is the teachers' time do the 4 90 minute sessions<br>
of online training (one each week).<br>
We have a new PD program for Aus and NZ time zones about to start<br>
Thursday 29th May at 7pm NZ and 5pm Sydney. Teachers are invited to sign<br>
up with a buddy (2 teachers from a school) and we take you through the<br>
use of the program and help you with any technical issues, supply<br>
resources and support you over your class time in QA.<br>
<br>
Angela Cooke in Tasmania is already using QA in her online program - and<br>
there are a number of teachers on this list who have trained and I am<br>
sure can attest to the value of QA.<br>
<br>
So Nathan and anyone else if you are interested please contact me and I<br>
will make a place for you in the next PD session.<br>
<br>
Bronwyn<br>

Good morning all,<br>
<br>
Attached is an excel file that I have been using as a Gantt chart tool.<br>
There is a chart in it with which I am having some trouble. The dates<br>
are set to 2007, and I can't work out how to make it show data on the<br>
chart with a current date.<br>
Any assistance you can give would be much appreciated.<br>
<br>
Thanks all,<br>
<br>
