Missing Geographic Shapes in Visio 2002

R

Robert

I am creating a world map using the geographic shapes but I am missing shapes
for China, India, Taiwan, and Hong Kong for sure. These and several other
major countries are missing from the shape library when I do "Find Shapes".
How can I get these shapes for Visio 2002?

due to some legal hassels with the countries involved, MS has decided to not
include them...
(china got really @#$%^ about it).

Try scanning a world map of the countries you need. Insert the file and then
trace the outline of the country with the drawing tool. Make sure you connect
the start and end points. This will create the shape you need. I've used this
to make shapes of our local cities and counties in our area. There might be a
better way but this got the job done for me.
