Does this also happen when you select menu File - New - Organization Chart"? -- Regards, Paul Herber, Sandrila Ltd. DFD/SSADM for Visio http://www.visio-dfd.sandrila.co.uk/

Paul --
I think he's asking a Visio question, and you had it right with your 1st response. For the feature he's trying to use, he must have started with an org chart setup. Cannot start with a new, vanilla drawing, and then open an org chart stencil; the auto connect by dropping a subordinate onto a superior won't work and you get that warning message.

Yes~~
When I open a ready-made visio file，I dont find "Organization Chart" on the menu . So if I want to use this feature , I must creat a new file by use " file--new--organization". Is that right ?

Correct. The org chart features and capabilities are tightly integrated. If
you desire to use all of the functionality, then you need to begin in "the org chart mode" as it were.

Hello ppp,
I wonder if you've created the drawing from the Org Chart stencil rather than being based on the template? ie did you use: File / Shapes / Business / Organization Chart / Organization Chart Shapes? or File / New / Business / Organization Chart (Wizard)? The first option only opens a single Org Chart stencil, but the second option creates a drawing based on the Org Chart template and this includes a number things: a) a set of associated stencils b) a drawing page itself c) some embedded 'persistent events' that call the Org Chart addon (The persistent events differ depending on whether you're using the normal or Wizard based templates, but it amounts to something very similar, ie the menu and code that Paul and WapperDude are refering to get loaded and the document becomes 'live'.) If you create a new drawing based on the second method above, you should be able to copy and paste your 'non-working' shapes across to your new document and they should spring to life! Hope that helps. Best regards John John Goldsmith (Visio MVP) www.visualSignals.typepad.co.uk www.visualSignals.co.uk "WapperDude" wrote in message ... Correct.
