Hi Knut,

Did you have a look at the "Flowchart" sheet? It might be sufficient to draw
Organisation Charts. If it is not, could you point to an example image that
displays the missing symbols?

Not that I know of. How do you reflect the organizational structure in Excel?
Again, an example (Excel sheet plus Diagram to be generated) would be helpful.

Dia 0.97 supports copy and paste to Word. Did you try "Edit" -> "Copy Diagram"?
