Crime scene? Hmmm. No, I'd better not go there...

When we moved from an 8500 square foot house to a 2400 square foot
condominium Visio came in very handy. I'm an interior decorating wizrd with
Visio!

I even did the silverware drawers. Ahem. The effort did not receive the
appreciation it deserved. There were those of us who felt that the move would
have gone faster had one pair of hands had been less busy at the keyboard and
more busy at other chores. I'm a measure twice and cut once kind of guy. And
I like to do the measuring and let other people do the cutting.

The most useful features in Visio (to me) are the ones that enable to me
waste hours and hours of time accomplishing nothing. The application is
downright charming, and it sucks me in every time I use it. I wind up
doing
test designs and diagrams of anything that comes to mind. My favorite
Microsoft product.

Oops. Wifey just saw me opening Visio and gave an exasperated little
sigh...

Hi Rob,

MS Office Visio is a diagramming product that can build or update
diagrams of computer networks, org charts, room layouts and more
from data files. http://office.microsoft.com/visio for the 2007 version
or http://microsoft.com/office/visio/prodinfo for the prior
(2003) version.

Visio is not included in any of the MS Office suites, but is avaialble
as a standalone product.

Your other question is a bit open-ended. Not knowing what you may need
to accomplish, it's not easy to say which features you'd
find 'useful' <g>.

What does this piece of software do? What are the other features of
Office
2003 that I may find useful. Does anyone have a complete list?
many thanks >>
