hi,
When using the wizard to create an organisational chart, can you ensure the order that they will appear on the screen? For example as I enter them on the spreadsheet, I want them to appear in that order on the chart, but they don't
RE: Visio
Hi Claire,
I hope you are well. The Visio Org Chart Wizard unfortunately 'follows its own mind' when first building the org chart. I've tried myself to rearrange the Excel data and I've also done some research, but the consensus is that Visio does its own thing.
There is, however, a silver lining in that, after creating the org chart, you can use the 'move' buttons in the Org Chart tab in Visio's ribbon to rearrange the boxes. Don't drag them manually, though.
I hope this helps.
Kind regards
Marius

RE: Visio
One last question...
How do I copy the org chart in visio into an email - it won't allow me to copy it?
RE: Visio
Hi Claire,
I've just tried it and it worked for me. Before you copied from Visio, did you press Ctrl + A ? This selects the entire org chart. Afterwards, you can simply right-click and paste in the message area in Outlook.
I hope this helps.
Kind regards
Marius
