Where do I find stencils of European countries for Visio?

[Lillemor]

In an earlier version of Visio there were stencils with a shape for each
country in europe (actually all countries in the world). In my current Viso
(2002) there are no maps. Anyone know where I could get country stenciles?

Use the word World in the search criteria. When you drag the shapes to the
page, you can select them all, right click and choose "Arrange to Page".
This will put the shapes in their proper position.

Note: you will get duplicates because there is a US and a metric version of
each shape. You will get alignment problems if you combine from the two
groups.

Thank you, but that is the problem. There are no map stencils or shapes in my
version of Visio. When I search for "world" there are no hits (none for
"Country" or "map" either). Can I find map shapes or stencils to download
from somewhere?

Make sure that the "Shape Search" includes the internet. (This is under
Tool --> Options..)
