Automatically create process diagrams in Visio from Excel data
Hai EricStarker
In visio flow chart creation some shapes have inbuilt shapes (ex in shapes UML Deployment -> package it has Package name and another text box and it is grouped)
How i can use this shapes while creating flow chart using Excel
If i want to give the process description and process ID in same shape means how i can use these grouped shapes

Vky2073 This is currently not possible, you can use any shape to create your flowchart steps from Excel data, however you can only map one field from data to the shape text. That is you can either map the shape text field to process description or to process ID but not both (even with a group shape).
