Default ORGANIZATIONAL CHART

Hi All

Anybody know of software that will use Access Database as data source that
will show an organizational hierachy similar to that shown in Word 2007
SmartArt?

Hello Kepior,

I would like to offer to work with you to develop an organizational chart
application that uses an Access database as the data source. I provide help
with Access, Excel and Word applications for a very reasonable fee. My fee
to work with you would be modest. Contact me if you want to work together on
this project.

Steve

Stevie is our own personal pet troll who is the only one who does not
understand the concept of FREE peer to peer support!
He offers questionable results at unreasonable prices.

These newsgroups are provided by Microsoft for FREE peer to peer support.
There are many highly qualified individuals who gladly help for free. Stevie
is not one of them, but he is the only one who just does not get the idea of
"FREE" support. He offers questionable results at unreasonable prices. If he
was any good, the "thousands" of people he claims to have helped would be
flooding him with work, but there appears to be a continuous drought and he
needs to constantly grovel for work.

As to actually answering your question, most of the software packages that
create org charts do support importing information from Access, Excel or
other data source. For some reason, my personal favourite is Visio.

SmartArt is a superset of the standard MSO shapes and it is possible to
automate the creation of an orgchart, but a more practical solution is to
use one of the commercially available programs.

Hi John

Thanks for you response and suggestion. I will look into the commercially
available ones. Was just hoping somebody would have used this before and
could point me in the right direction without me having to download and run
each in an effort to find the correct one.

As for Steve - you get them everywhere . Beggars on street corner hoping for
a bit of food. I have been developing software applications since 1987 (good
old DBase days!) and have come across many people like Steve. But to
generalise these are the types that create the bad image in the industry.
They develop applications that leave the client with no aftersales support
and nowhere to turn to correct bad programming except to have to do the whole
application over.

Yes, I have run across this many times. I have worked on many projects where
customers could not get help from the original developer of the application.
I am working on a current project where the developer gave the customer a
..mde file. The customer has several problems with the application and the
developer wants an arm and a leg for the original .mdb file. I am recreating
the entire application for less than half the cost of the original .mdb file
and will give the customer a .mdb file in case he wants to make
modifications any time in the future. All my work carries a sixty day
guarantee for the customer to test drive my work. Within the sixty days, I
fix any problems the customer finds (very rare) and make any modifications
the customer wants.

I am amazed at the presumptious and totally self-righteous attitude with
which my last reply was responded to. Facebook has a facility to block a user
who is not wanted, maybe MS should look into placing a similar function in
DGH. But then again characters like $teve will find a way around it.

I thought I wrote this already but I guess not.

The closest I've ever come is that if you have the simple situation whihc
show only line authority, and everyone has one and only one boss, then you
can sort of do this with reports and sub-reports and sub-sub-reports

Otherwise for straight drawing of such, I like AutoSketch (which is like
Autocad lite lite) More precise and predicable that Visio, but Vision also
has it's advantages.
