I\'ve posted this to the other \"Technical Support\" forum, but this one may be slightly more appropriate for my query.



Anyway, I\'m having a problem with a Word file that has three flowcharts embedded into it - and I can\'t do anything with them! They were created in ABC Flowcharter, which I don\'t have. Does anyone know how I might be able to edit the flowcharts? I can read them in Print Preview, but not the normal display. There\'s quite a lot to them, so I\'d really like... See more

There\'s quite a lot to them, so I\'d really like to be able to fix them up if at all possible.



Thanks in advance for your help. I have 4 1/2 hours to submit the job. It\'s all done except for these wretched flowcharts.



Best Regards

flowcharts Aug 17, 2002

I don\'t know if this will help, but I recently translated a word document that included several VISIO and SHAPEWARE objects. You can highlight the object (or in your case, perhaps the place where the chart should be?), press CRTL-ALT-F9 simultaneouly Cconverting it to a Word object), then right click and select EDIT. This process is much faster and easier if you have Word XP/2002.
