| 1164090 | 2010-12-22 08:09:00 | Hi all, Firstly seasons greetings for those not of a "Bah! Humbug!" bent. (Heh heh) My query is over finding a good simple freeware programme to construct an Organisational Chart as a graphic to place in a website page. I've Googled all over the place but I think the interpretation of the terms used is making things a little difficult. Can any one recommend such a programme and a source pleas? Much appreciated in advance. Googles version of freeware seems only to extend to a free trial period then the astronomical price kicks in. Cheers, Ken |

| 1164093 | 2010-12-22 09:53:00 | You could try the organizational chart from Google Code (code.google.com), which might require a sign-up for their API, which you need a URL (I used their maps API/code for a site of mine). Also search for a chart mashup, bound to be some with script codes, mostly based on Google API's. Or maybe a mind mapping chart (freenuts.com) set up if useful or relevant. Plenty about. |

Word (yeah, not free) also has flow-chart type 'callouts' / shapes that can be used. Then all you need is to hit printscreen to secure it as a graphic, and re-size to suit. |

| 1164097 | 2010-12-22 22:08:00 | Make your own with MS Word if you have it. | Colpol (444) | ||
| 1164098 | 2010-12-23 21:09:00 | Thanks all, enough replies to steer me in different directions so have started the trek. Tried a couple of the 30 day trial programmes but some have various elements lacking. Nobody ever said the learning curve will be a small and at 65 yrs old the curve grows greater daily. |
