Where do I find a mind mapping tool within Microsoft Office? I've been told
there is a free download in Excel but I can't find it. I'm using MS Office 2007 in Windowns Vista Can anyone help? |

mind mapping
Office does not have a mind mapping tool but Excel will interface with your
mind mapping application. Do a 'net search for mind mapping excel to find many hits. Did not run through to see if any are free.

Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP No idea if these connect with excel (other than as data sources) but I have played with a few packages claiming to be mind map related. I kept freemind (freemind.sourceforge.net) and keynote (http://keynote.prv.pl), both of which are free. Freemind is more the classic mind map s/w, giving pretty pictures and connections and keynote calls itself a 'tabbed notebook for windows' and to me, is the more useful as a connection to XL files.

FreeMInd has various ways of talking to Excel, see: http://freemind.sourceforge.net/wiki...ort_to_ Excel http://freemind.sourceforge.net/wiki...86.90_FreeMind That page also says "Import and export with Microsoft Excel works by drag & drop or copy & paste of complete nodes. You can copy a selection of cells in Excel and drop it in FreeMind. Doing this with several columns, creates corresponding child nodes." Roy http://www.topicscape.com The 3D information organizer |
