   having trouble getting the basics of a gantt chart, not sure what goes where in the data and also options seem to fail. Couldn't find an example online which is how i usually figure out mydbr since the doc really are quite good. I can get a gantt to appear but modifying it is proving that i don't really know what i am doing.

   1.
   putting this line creates a response when report is run of Unknown table 'gantt' in field list
   select 'dbr.chart.options', gantt.scale, 30;

   2.
   wondering if there is a list of how many columns the gantt chart should have and where they should go (usually i find this in an example)

   if you feel i should search online (haven't worked with gantt before) and learn about gantt feel free to mention that as well

   thanks

   ps: mydbr was updated this morning and chardirector ver is 5.1

   1) The gantt.scale option defines the scale of the x-axis timescale in days. If you use 30, it will be considered a month.

   if you use the option string without quotation marks, database will try to interpret it as a table.column reference. So use format:

   select 'dbr.chart.options', 'gantt.scale', 30;

   2) Gantt chat does not have columns, the axis is the timescale where the invividual elements are placed. See the example from the demo.
