Add A Diagram To A Word Document (Word 2002)

Posted by on Dec 22, 2006 | One Comment

When it comes to putting together a document that is attention grabbing and eye catching, it is entirely up to you. Although Word gives you the tools you need to put together a creative presentation, it won’t automatically inject the creativity for you.

One of the ways in which you can spice up a document is to use organizational charts where appropriate. Instead of just listing your data, why not make it more exciting by using a chart? Word makes it easy for you to add an organizational chart to your document. Here is what you have to do.

  1. Open your Word document.
  2. Place the cursor where you want to insert an organization chart.
  3. From the Insert menu, click Diagram.
  4. Six items will appear. Select the item in the top left corner.
  5. Click OK.

An organizational chart will automatically be inserted into your document. You can easily drag the chart to any location. You can also add additional boxes. Right click an existing box and select one of the following options: Subordinate, Coworker, or Assistant, depending on where you want the new box placed.

    I have followed your advice and I still can not get the chart to appear in the print preview screen or print on the page when I and finished and have printed the document. What step am I missing?
