Excel spreadsheet in Visio

[pdelli2]

I am new to Visio. I have been using AutoCadd for all projects but
lately it seems that Visio is a little bit easier. I need to draw
scale drawings that match the scale of an excel graph. I am sure this
is possible but I do not know where to begin. An example of my quandry
is: I used graphs of Pressure in pipes Vs. Distance from left to
right. I would like to draw the pipe to the scale of the graph. Any
help would be appreciated.

I didn't well understand your need but with visio you can draw scaled
diagram.

Look at the settings of the page "File=>Page setup=>Page size" and
"File=>Page setup=>Drawing sicale"

Enjoy with Visio

You can define the size, orientation and scale of a page with File / Page
Setup
Note that you can also chnage the Measurement Units on the Page Properties
tab

You can set Tools / Ruler and Grid - then change the Grids to Fixed and set
the spacing and origin
Note that you can have a different spacing for Vertical and Horizontal

Tools / Snap and Glue allows you to set what lines Snap to

You could also create a Graph Shape ( John G. - are you there?)

Alternatively, you can embed an Excel Graphi in the page.....
