Microsoft Project Visual Reports

Project Visual Reports

This is a new feature in Project 2007, but to be able to use this feature you need .net framework 2, Excel 2007 and Visio 2007 installed. If you do not have these installed they will not work.

The advantage of using Visual reports is that the reports can then be manipulated in Excel using pivot tables and charts and Visio.

Create the Visual report

1.     Menu Reports, visual reports

2.     Select whether to see Excel, Visio or both type of reports

3.     Select report required in either the all categories or from the type of report required.

4.     Click on View

This opens up the report in Excel or Visio where it can be manipulated independently.
