Can anyone suggest a tutorial for drawing a flow chart in
FP 2002?
I am having trouble getting the lines and boxes to come
together neatly.

Hi Garth,

What tool is being used to design the Flow Chart. MS Visio works fairly well with FP.

Don't do it in FP.=20

Create the flow chart in Visio, or SmartDraw (excellent for this) then =
save it as an image, then import into FP.

Can I use several hyperlinks in one Visio or Smart Draw
image and can these be pointed at pages in FP?

Garth.

sure! once you have the image (flow chart) into the web design just make =
hotspots for each shape and point them to whatever page you like.

btw, SmartDraw is awesome it's more than just a flow-charter...easy to =
use. The free trial should get you by...but it's definitely worth =
buying.

The flow chart will be altered several times.
Can the hyperlinks be made to move with the chart symbols
rather than a location on the FP page?

Garth.

I don't think so. You may need to approach this in another way if the =
chart is going to keep changing. Hard to tell without seeing it. Maybe =
you can do it with tables and included content/pages?=20

Auto shapes are VML and only work in IE
- plus they are absolutely positioned and "fall apart" at varying resolutions
You will need to use a proper program (like Visio) for your charts

Hello CG.

Thank you for your comments & suggestions.
SmartDraw is interesting, esp the organisation and flow
charts.
I shall give it a try.

Regards,
Garth.
