Argument	Type	Required	Purpose
1	Integer	Yes	Task Row (1 based)
2	String	Yes	Start Date (in short date form based on regional settings) e.g. m/d/y
3	Integer	No, use 0 for default	Starting Symbol type from toolbox (1-64)
4	Integer	No, use 0 for default	Starting Horizontal connector type from toolbox (1-32).
5	Integer	Yes, set to 0	Reserved for future use.
6	Integer	Yes	Symbol type for second symbol from toolbox (1-64)
7	Integer	Yes	Duration
8	String	Yes	Duration Type, set to "Day", "Hour", or "Minute", depending upon the units of argument 7.
9	Integer	No	Starting Symbol hour (0-23)
10	Integer	No	Starting Symbol minute (0-59)
11	String	No, use "" for default	Starting Symbol text line 1 (58 chars max)

13	String	No, use "" for default	Starting Symbol text line 3 (58 chars max)

Notes:

This command automatically makes sure that enough rows are allocated to hold data. Rows are allocated as needed.
Symbols are initially ordered based upon the order in which they are added so it is important that the vertical indexes of connected symbols reflect the final correct date order after sorting is done.
The SortSymbols call sorts the symbols on a line. Add all the symbols to a row before using the SortSymbols call. Out of order symbols can cause the SmartColumn calculations to be incorrect.
Horizontal connections are only displayed if the connected symbol has a date later than the originating symbol.

Example: Add two symbols to row one that are connected by a bar. Use symbol type 5 for the first symbol and symbol type 3 for the second symbol. Use connector type 7.
