Is there a stencil for Venn Diagrams in Visio, or an alternative

I want to draw a Venn diiagram with approximately 5 data sets. How is this
best achieved with Office products?

This can easily done by using simple circles from the toolbar.

It is possible to set the fill colour of the circles to have transparency,
but the reulting colour when you overlap is a bit disappointing.

The prefered solution is to arrange the circles in the pattern you want,
select all the circles and then do Operations --> Fragment from the Shapes
menu. You will then have a seperate shape for each section of the Venn
diagram and colour them any way you want.

Due to overlapping, you may have problems selecting sections. Just send the
interferring shape to the back.
