Gantt Chart and Flowchart

$

Let's say I have a Gantt Chart in Visio. Can I make a flowchart in another Visio page that is linked tosome tasks in the Gantt Chart?  For example, say I have a Gantt Chart with the following tasks (and subtasks):

  • Issue parts list

             - define drawings

             - combine drawing numbers

  • Make assembly 1

  • Make assembly 2

             - assemble FWD section

             - flow check

             - assemble AFT section

  • Dimensional inspections of assemblies 1 and 2 together

  • Make assembly 3

  • Make final assembly

And I would like the flowchart to be:

Issue parts list  --->  Make assembly 1  --->  Make assembly 2  --->  Make assembly 3  --->  Make final assembly

Can I do that?

In such a way that if I added another task in the Gantt Chart that I would also like to show in the flowchart I could do so by just "refreshing" the flowchart? For example, assume I add "Send assembly 1 to vendor for coat application" between "Make assembly 1" and "Make assembly 2", and I wanted this new task to be in the flowchart. Can I "refresh" the flowchart so it now shows the following:

Issue parts list  --->  Make assembly 1  --->  Send assembly 1 to vendor for coat application  --->  Make assembly 2  --->  Make assembly 3  --->  Make final assembly

I'm new to Visio. I normally use Excel and Powerpoint, but I dont know of a way of linking a flowchart with a Gantt chart.  If there is such a way in Excel, feel free to let me know, too :)

I appreciate the help!!
