How do I chart date ranges with varying start and finish dates?

[projectplanner]

I want to create a chart that on one axis will show date ranges that have
varying start and finish dates. The other axis is a list of project names.
Example: Project #1, starts 5/1/05, ends 10/1/05; Project #2 starts 3/5/05,
ends 2/2/06, etc. I want a bar chart that I can sort. Any help is very
appreciated. : )
