Mark,
How about posting it on the Office/visio site so that others can have the
fun of playing with it.

I have this diagram on the wall in my office. Many of the connecting

lines
in the diagram are special connectors like the bus connector. The
standard
Dynamic Connector will not route along non-orthogonal angles
automatically.
We're very interested in making a diagram as complex as this easier to
construct, so please send along your experiences here.

It could have been with the Bus connector off the Connectors stencil,
rotated by 45 degrees.

I would like to know what technique Microsoft use to produce this

diagram.
I have tried everything i can and i cannot make the the connectors

route
on
45 degree angle like they are in this drawing. I have tried page

rotation,
i can replicate this by drawing lines, but not using connectors. is
there
someway to rotate the grid to do this. we love the way the diagrams

look
and would like to replicate this in our work drawings.

Cheers

Michael
