Question
Is there any way to import a Visio flow chart into Word as anything other than a graphic?  One of the guys here in the office wants to take a Visio flowchart and convert it to a Word flowchart with the ability to edit the text within the boxes.  Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

Answer
Ok, that's like using a hammer to drive in a screw.

Word is a word processor, Visio is a business graphics processor. I would NEVER use word to do flow charts when I have Visio. Makes no sense.

The answer is you can't do it. The only possibility is to copy and paste text between the two. My answer is I wouldn't even try.

Hope this helps,
Scott<>
