Visio from the ground up.

I started using Visio about 2 years ago when Visio 5 was the application of choice. I have placed in charged of office layout and design for the network. Also I have the responsibility of making sure our remote offices are setup as well. The application we are using is Visio 2002, and while I thought a few changes from previous application I was mistaken.

I turned to the company that supports Visio 2002 and the Inside Out is the perfect choice for to answer the questions I will have in using and working with Visio 2002. The 950 page book seems to written just for me and so far it has given me several answers already.

The book is broken down into 7 parts with part 1 dealing with the basics of creating diagrams, shapes, how to store data and working with other applications. Part 2 is for the business diagrams, flow charting and project management.

Part 3 shows how to setup and work with network diagrams, 4 is for CAD, site and floor plans. With 5 you work with databases and software design. Part 6 teaches you about customizing, creating and editing, defining shapes, patterns and color for the Visio platform itself.

Finally part 7 and how to create and work with technical diagrams like mechanical and electrical diagrams as well as space planning. The cd included has a 30 day evaluation of Visio and the e-book, add-ins, trial and demo software. You have everything you need and the book to help you get there.
