Basics Flowchart Techniques: Basic Flowcharts in Microsoft Office

Many dedicated programs do only flowcharts, and although Microsoft creates another program called Visio for Windows users that’s more flowchart savvy than mainstream Microsoft Office programs, there’s no version of Visio available for Mac users. And it really doesn’t matter too much if all you need to do is create a basic flowchart because you can create flowcharts within your other Office programs such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint! Why do we put forth such a recommendation? That’s because these Microsoft Office programs already have all the abilities and options you need to create almost any type of flowchart you need.What’s more, you don’t have to buy and learn yet another program to do something that really is so simple!

Animate Slide Objects: Fake-Animate Tables in PowerPoint

In PowerPoint, animating table components is not possible unless you ungroup the table. Once your table is ungrouped, you can animate the ungrouped table components as you wish. However, for those of you who don’t want to ungroup your table, there is another workaround where you don’t actually apply any animation to the table components, but when you play the slide containing the table, it looks like your table components are animating!
