║ The program has been using data which was created as a print file by the ║
║ ║
║ program SCHEDULE. Because this data is in the standard ASCII form it is ║
║ ║
║ possible to create the data manually using a standard editor program such ║
║ ║
║ as the IBM Personal or Professional Editors. ║
║ ║
║ ║
║ ║
║ ║
║ I'm going to show you what this data looks like so you can create your own. ║

║ Let's look at the first page of the DOS file "GANTT.PRT". ║
