I understand the built-in date limitation in Visio 2007. Has anyone
found a workaround? Anyone found a good solution in a different
product? I need to do a good timeline for a book, and I hope the
final timeline output might be good enough to be part of the
publication.

Any suggestions / pointers appreciated!

Glad you understand the built-in limitation, I don't. Sort limits the
usefulness. Anyway, there are a number of products if you Google timeline
software. I've not used any, but here are some that look interesting:

http://www.timelinemaker.com/
http://www.timelinecreator.com/

Good luck.

The 1900 start date limitation is apparently from Windows / OS .

Thanks, I'll look at some other products...
