Get a New Perspective on Data With PivotDiagrams

Overview A PivotDiagram in Microsoft Office Visio 2007 is similar to an Excel PivotTable report: It arranges data in a visual way so that users can more easily see and explain the meaning behind the facts. When users create a PivotDiagram, Visio imports the data and adds three things to the diagram: a legend with information about the data source, a title box, and a primary shape that aggregates all the data in the data source. This webcast shows how PivotDiagrams can help to get a fresh perspective on the data.
