How do I convert a Visio org chart to simple text boxes & lines?
I am using Visio Standard 2002 SR-1. I want to convert a Visio org chart to
a simple drawing of text boxes and lines. In other words, eliminate the org chart "intelligence", such that I can move anything wherever I want without other stuff moving with it. |

Try our Visio utilities http://www.visio-utilities.sandrila.co.uk It can do a symbol substritute. I've just tried it and it seems to work (Visio 2003). The connecting lines get deleted though. Must be the org chart add on doing that so might be a good idea to temporarily delete the add on (orgchart.dll) before doing any substitutions. -- Regards, Paul Herber, Sandrila Ltd. http://www.pherber.com/ Visio Utilities http://www.visio-utilities.sandrila.co.uk/ |

How do I convert a Visio org chart to simple text boxes & lines?
Rather than deleting or renaming the add-on dll, you can also remove the
persisted events in the document that launch the add-on for that particular drawing. If you have the Visio SDK installed, you can do this by going to "ToolsAdd-onsSDKToolsPersistent Events..." and removing the call to Org Chart. If you don't have the SDK, the easiest way to do this is probably to save as xml (.vdx) then remove the EventList element, which holds the persisted events for that document. -- Bill Morein Office Graphics - Visio Microsoft Corporation http://blogs.msdn.com/wmorein This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
