[QUOTE="MrBiker, post: 1432048, member: 265279"] From the Microsoft web site (under known issues [aka: bugs]): "Earlier versions of Office for Mac included Organization Chart, a tool for creating and editing organization charts. Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 does not include Organization Chart. When you open a document that contains an object that was created by using Organization Chart, you can view it, but you cannot edit it." Because, let's face it; Organizations are static. So whoever worked in whatever position back in 2004-2010 is going to be there forever. It'll never change. And no one on that org chart will ever die, either. Let's all get on an org chart so we become invincible...according to Microsoft's view of the world. Then again, I've waited seven minutes in Microsoft's estimate. By the clock on the wall it took over half an hour (how much snark is too much?). So what I'm is looking for is a way to edit Office 2004 PowerPoint org charts in Office PowerPoint 2011. Mr. Google finds no solutions to this. The thing that blows me away is that there are org charts out there that cover a wall. What are those people doing about it? Why does MS not see this as a problem worth fixing? [/QUOTE]
