Can flow chart be created in Project 2003?

[Steve]

I've been told that I can create a flow chart using Project 2003 but I can
not find any information on it, everything piont me to Visio. Does anyone
know if this is possible of am I wasting my time on this idea?

Hi Steve

depends what you want it to show, check out the Network Diagram for one idea
(view / network diagram)

Project does create a special type of flowchart called a PERT chart or
Network Diagram that shows the logical relationships between tasks in a
project. But it is not a graphing tool as such nor does it create other
types of generic flowcharts or other graphics. Depending on version its
also more expensive than Visio. Visio is purpose-built for business
diagraming including flowcharting and has far more graphical capabilties
than Project. You didn't say whether you were working specifically with
project task schedules or some other sorts of flowcharting but unless it's
part of a project schedule I'd investigate Visio.
