Hello John,

Thanks for your answer. The key-combination C-c C-c unfortunately creates the 
new additional block of code surrounded by the lines 
#+RESULTS:
#+begin_latex
  Here's the created LaTeX code
#+end_latex
right after the lisp function.

This code block has to be moved just before the line beginning with 
#+   \\draw...
to get the order right again.

I tried to include the results of the evaluation of the lisp function there by 
placing
#+RESULTS: elispgantt
there (because there's a line saying #+source: elispgantt), but for unknown 
reasons,
the results of code evaluation are always placed just after the elispgantt 
function.
Any help to fix that is appreciated.

Hopefully you can now compile my example,
Julia
