I currently have Visio 2003 and have only used it on a few occasions, muddling through each time. The help file has been of some assistance but not nearly what I need, being a really green newbie as I am. I see myself using it a little bit more (but not nearly enough to justify an upgrade to 2007) and so would like to purchase a book that will help me get better utility from Visio. Looking at both the websites for both B&N and Amazon, I see that there are a number of books about Visio 2003 which have been published. But past experience has taught me that a large number of tech books are rubbish and are nothing more than just a hard copy printing of either the help file or online documentation. I'm looking for something a bit more in depth with a lot of practical and/or real-world examples. I'm wondering if any of you can recommend such a book? thnx, Christoph
Check out John Marshall's site (visio.mvps.org), he has a good list. Uusally I recommend David Edson's and Graham Wideman's books. When you get to the data requirements (v2007) I'd get David Parkers book. al "Christoph Boget" wrote in message news:06857BF9-9975-4682-B8AA-A9BD49DA3303@microsoft.com... >I currently have Visio 2003 and have only used it on a few occasions, >muddling through each time.
