Can Visio 2007 nest sub-processes

External Since: Sep 03, 2008 Posts: 1

Is there a way to nest flows within a given flow? Say I have a simple flow
chart with 5 objects labeled from Box 1 through Box 5. Now let's say Box #2
is another sub-process with it's own objects. Can I 'nest' this sub-process
under Box #2 in Visio 2007? What I am hoping for is if I click on Box 2, it
opens the flow that has been nested in that box.

You can add a hyperlink to Box#2. The link will connect to the desired page
in the Visio document. To add the link, select the desired shape, go to menu
bar > insert > hyperlink. Fill out the form. It's pretty much
self-explanatory. You'll want to add a link back to the main page.
