This image shows a Project Gantt chart with a separate table region for dropping tasks. The chart view in the image shows data for the 11th of May, 2008 to the 24th of August, 2008 with weekly increments.

The value Task A-P3 has been dragged and dropped in the separate task table, which has the columns Task Name, Resource, Start Date and End Date. The table has a bar preview for the task just as it would in the Gantt chart.
