Description

Date Picker for Excel by Uniform Software is a native desktop utility designed to replace error-prone manual spreadsheet date entry and deprecated ActiveX/VBA controls. Built as a compiled .NET/WPF client for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows architectures, it embeds a responsive, cursor-tethered calendar overlay directly into Microsoft Excel (versions 2013 through 365) without triggering IT firewall blocks or macro security warnings. Unlike legacy macro workbooks or modern web task-pane add-ins that hog system memory and screen real estate, Date Picker operates as a lightweight native hook into the Excel Ribbon UI and right-click context menus. It maintains tight grid stability across split views, frozen panes, and varying zoom states. Key Technical Features: • Auto-Detection Engine: Scans date fields, values, and column headers across 50+ languages to trigger the pop-up calendar upon cell focus. • Regional Format Overrides: Bypasses OS locale conflicts (e.g., US MM/DD/YYYY vs EU DD/MM/YYYY) by enforcing strict administrative whitelists and blacklists. • Multi-Month Grid Navigation: Supports expandable visual grids from 1x1 up to 10x10 multi-month layouts for long-range planning. • Enterprise Security & Deployment: Distributed via the Microsoft Store and Microsoft Marketplace. Zero reliance on VBA scripts or ActiveX MonthView components. Includes an unrestricted 7-day (Microsoft Store) or 30-day (Microsoft Marketplace) free trial, followed by a $0.99/month user subscription covering up to 10 concurrent Windows devices per account.

Description

Gantt Chart Maker (Timeline Task Planner) is a native Windows Excel-based app that transforms Microsoft Excel into an offline project scheduling engine. Built for engineers, developers, and technical project leads who require deterministic schedule calculations without sending sensitive project data to third-party web servers, the software executes entirely within the local desktop environment. Instead of relying on fragile grid formulas or web wrappers, the add-in hooks directly into Excel’s native architecture. It processes task lists into dynamic Gantt charts with automated dependency cascading across four standard link types: Finish-to-Start (FS), Start-to-Start (SS), Finish-to-Finish (FF), and Start-to-Finish (SF). An internal calculation module accounts for custom working schedules, non-working days, and corporate holiday lists to compute accurate net durations across complex task networks. Key technical capabilities include baseline locking for schedule variance analysis, multi-scale timeline grids (Daily to Yearly with ISO week numbering), and high-density vector PDF rendering via Excel’s native print engine. Data persistence relies strictly on standard .xlsx workbooks and local or network-mapped Microsoft Access (.accdb) databases, ensuring zero network transport of confidential project metadata. Available via the Microsoft Store and the Microsoft Marketplace, Gantt Chart Maker provides a lightweight, and enterprise-deployable scheduling tool for Windows 10 and 11 environments.
