Project and Visio API (VBA)- Using Milestones in Project to create a Visio Timeline

I have a problem here and I hope someone will be able to assist me.

I have a bunch of milestones in project and I would like to select a few of the milestones and create a visio timeline for it. I know 2007 has an option to import the whole project file to create a timeline but I just want the selected milestones to appear. Is there a way?

I got a feedback from someone and I'd like to share it with you guys to see if it works.

"This sounds like it would require some custom code using the Project and Visio APIs, perhaps in VBA. I don't think it would be terribly complicated- get the selected milestones in Project, copy their attributes, drop a timeline shape in Visio, drop some milestones on it, and configure the milestones using the Project milestones' attributes."

Is anyone able to write it since I am VB illiterate (Well I have some knowledge).
