Flowchart

[Billyc99]

Hello group. I began using Visio today at the office. i am setting up a TPM
program for our Production shop. i need to make a presentation to our Group
Master and shop head to get their buy-in on the new system. The program seems
quite intuitive so it seems i should have fun also. I don't have any
questions at this point. Any comments fromt he group?

Hi Billy,

Well, with Visio you've got a HUGE installed base relative to other
software, so it's kind of THE Standard for flowcharting. The product is 14
years old, so it's mature, and the company producing it won't be
disappearing.

If you've got large amounts of data or diagrams that need producing, or
analyzing, Visio supports automation very well. This means people can write
programs that automatically create charts from data, or automatically read
existing charts to extract information.

The new version, 2007 is just about out, and there are improvements for
flowcharting and for linking to data. I've compiled a set of links regarding
the new features here:
