I am looking for a dll or ocx that I can use with Access to create
time charts. Could anyone point me in the right direction please.

Thanks for that. I was hoping to have something built in to my
application and I do not need all the complex functionality of MS
Project. I just need simple Gant charts.

Gantt charts aren't simple! They may *look* simple, but they are based on a
significant number of obscurely-interrelated task attributes: duration,
resource(s), optional lead/lag times, optional fixed start/end dates, %
commitment, etc. etc.
I think automating Project would be the way to go.

Could you do something using textboxes & adjusting their width at runtime?
For example, say you had two textboxes txt1 and txt2, one above the other,
running across the width of the form. Code like the following would make the
second one red, and 1/3 the length of the first one:
me![txt2].backcolor = rgb(255,0,0)
me![txt2].width = me![txt1].width / 3
With suitable calculations to determine the # and length of each box,
perhaps that would work?
