Gantt Chart Import Invalid Column Error

A

Andrew Lavinsky

Trying to import an Excel table into the Gantt Chart in Visio. The Finish
date works fine, but every time I try to map the Start date, I get an
"Invalid Column Format" error. Tried changing the format of the Start date
field, and it doesn't change anything.

Excel 2007
Visio 2007 SP2 and 2010 Beta, both with the same issue.

Any suggestions?

some people have luck with exporting a file from Visio first, then using that as a dummy file to enter data into and import back. I also found that visio chokes on blank date fields.
