Hi,
I have data in the following format with multiple entries which are partially overlapping:
Name
Start date
Stop date
John01-Jan-202020-Nov-2020
Jack15-May-202001-Mar-2021
Jennifer01-Dec-202001-Sep-2021
Is it possible to visualize this as a Gantt chart? The closest match I can see is the clustered bar chart, but that's not quite what I need. I would rather have the data like that:

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
can you use cells with conditional formatting
something like

or did you want a chart
and where are the Task 1, 2, 3, 4 etc ?

Thanks,
Conditional formatting might be one of the solutions. However, ideally I would want to have a chart. In that case, task name would match people names in the mini-table above.
