tracing

[egalois]

I have a crude floor plan that is 25yrs old with written markings. I inserted
it and want to trace the walls to create a clean drawing. Can someone please
give a brief description of the tools and commands I would use to do this?

I realize I may be asking for the impossible, but I think If I had the right
visio vocabulary, I might be able to do this without buying another 50 dollar
book.
thanks for all attempts!

The stencil you want is called "Walls, Shell, and Structure" and it
has all the walls, door, windows, etc.
If you can't find it, go to File > Shapes > Maps and Floorplans >
Building Plan > Walls, Shell and Structure
Then it's just a matter of dragging, dropping, and manipulating.
I hope this helps. I'm a n00b too...been using Visio only since last
April.
