Data source for Visio

[FinChase]

I'm trying to build a database to serve as a data source for a Visio org
chart. I'm not entirely sure that Access is the best choice for a data
source for Visio, as I'm not really familiar with this program. Has anyone
ever used Access as a data source for a Visio org chart?

Hi Fin,

I think a Visio forum would be a better place to ask this question.

The usual data source for a Visio orgchart is an Excel spreadsheet. You can
run the Visio Orgchart wizard select Excel as the source, create a simple
orgchart and save the result as an Excel spreadsheet. You will then have a
sample Excel file to build on.
