RE: Visio

Hi Mary

1.
To create an organisation chart:

- Click on File > New > Organisation Chart
- Use the top 3 shapes on the stencil once the template has opened
- Drag the EXECUTIVE shape onto the page
- Then drag the MANAGER or POSITION shape onto the page, and drop it directly onto the EXECUTIVE shape. This will link the shapes.

2. Visio Extras
You can search for shapes by using the search box just above the stencil area. use a keyword search , like you would in Google. The Visio Extras should be found under the stencils list. On your toolbar, in the middle of the screen, there should be a green and yellow button, which shows the stencil list. Visio Extras will be listed under there. If it is not, it may be because of the version of VISIO you are using. Click on HELP > ABOUT, to see which version it is.

Hope that helps.

Richard

Visio tip:

Using the Quick Access Toolbar in Visio 2010

The Quick Access Toolbar is included in virtually every Office product, including Visio 2010 as well as Outlook 2010, Word 2010, Excel 2010, and PowerPoint 2010.

You will find the Quick Access Toolbar in the top-left side of the window. To begin, click the Customize button (it's the little black arrow at the end of the toolbar).

Simply click the commands you want to include.

Virtually any command can be added to the Quick Access Toolbar. Click the More Commands option and a new window will open from where you can browse the commands including those not on the ribbon.
