I'm using an organizational chart with 2 partners, and employees (subordinates) under them on second line. I've got both partners on the same line (turned off Auto layout)& hid the existing connectors. How do I get a line from BOTH partners to their subordinates (right now its only coming from one of them). I've tried the Help & the online tutorials but I can't find anything. I cannot re-draw the line in either, because I can't connect the lines (only draw straight ones from one box to another). Help!

Normally I use Visio and past it into PowerPoint. In power point create a blank page, go to insert and select diagram. Chose the org chart and select it a hit OK it will put an org chart in the blank page that has one top box and several boxes under it. Right click in the top box and the orgianizational box appears if not already there. Select the layout drop down and you can chose a layout right or left that has one top box and several boxes under it in a top down look. Repeat this process and you can create two org charts that are side by side with top boxes (partners) and lower boxes(employees). I tried up loading a power point example but this site does not handle these. Tony
