Automatically change daily view gantt chart into weekly view gantt chart in Excel 2019

Copper Contributor

Hi expert,

 

I currently have an excel template for Gantt charts with a detail per date display format.
The start date can be started on any date, but I always start the date of the Gantt chart from the 1st of the start date.
I want it to be automatically converted to a weekly display format based on the date range of each task.
The weekly view I want is flexible according to each month.
Example:
- October 2020 will appear for 5 weeks (1/10/2020, 5/10/2020, 12/10/2020, 19/10/2020, 26/10/2020)
- November 2020 will appear for 6 weeks (1/11/2020, 2/11/2020, 9/11/2020, 16/11/2020, 23/11/2020, 30/11/2020)

My difficulty is changing the date details to a weekly format.
Thank you.

 

Regards,

If I may suggest, please add a file (without sensitive data) and describe your plan on it.

The error could be identified faster and more specifically.

Please no picture, even if it is said that a picture is worth a thousand words, it is definitely not in the case of Excel.

This means that you can be helped more quickly and the best possible solution tailored to your needs can be offered.

So everyone is helped.

Help to be helped.

 

* It's always good to add your operating system and Excel version.

 

 

Thank you for your understanding and patience.

Unfortunately, cannot help at the moment, as other commitments call.
But I am almost certain that someone will contact you.
