Templates by Edition sample diagram for Visio 2010

Quickly see which templates are included in each edition of Microsoft Visio 2010 with this sample diagram, created as a companion to the Visio 2010 MVP Sessions (http://visio.microsoft.com/MVPSessions), Video 1. MVP Sessions Video 1 highlights how to create different diagrams from appropriate out-of-the-box templates that each include relevant shape stencils and sometimes include unique, template-specific capabilities. This sample diagram uses custom data graphics with the out-of-the-box Organizational Chart template to highlight in color the different template options for each edition of Visio 2010. Clicking each box also instantly provides more information in the Shape Data window. You can use similar techniques to show, for example, the difference between your current organizational structure and a proposed reorganization.
