Org Chart Shape Limitation

[TAGyurit]

I am creating an Org chart that has several people that have a "dual"
reporting line. What do I need to do to get a shape from the org stencil
that will allow more than one superior? It would be acceptable to have the
second superior shown as a "auxilliary", "alternate", or some other
reduced-capacity manager.

HELP!

If you have Visio 2003, you can use the dotted-line report connector from
the Organization Chart stencil. In versions prior to Visio 2003 there is no
way to have a subordinate report to two masters.

Is there anyway of importing that through the Org Chart Import - i.e. how do
you specify multiple masters in the .TXT/.CSV import?

Thanks
Jeremy

Dotted line reporting is not supported in the Wizard.

Thanks. That would be a great feature. We've been asked so many times I've
lost count, to be able to import our data and correctly show multiple
"parents".
