Question

I have a Microsoft Word document with a flowchart containing some rectangular shapes and lines which end with arrows. Is there a simple way to convert them to Microsoft Visio?

Answer 1

Please open Visio and select Import then Object. Then, select the "Create from file" option. In order to link the Word file to VIsion you need to also check Link To file option. Once the process completes, the Word file will be inserted in Visio and you can handle it using the built-in tools.
