Creating a Venn Diagram using Word...

buffalo · Aug 30, 2006, 05:40 PM

I need to make a venn diagram for an English assignment. Is the any tempate or formatting available to type out the diagram (including the text, not just the circles)? I have the Student Edition of Office or could install my trial of iWork '06 if it's easier there.

Thanks!

I found this Microsoft help page, but can't seem to find the Mac buttons.

Am I missing anything?

bumping this once...

Not a big deal if no one knows, I guess I'll have to cut and paste onto a seperate piece of paper.

You could certainly use the oval drawing tool to make two overlapping circles and then put three textboxes into the appropriate area.

The second to last link on this page will give you a Venn diagram template (I tested the download and can vouch for its being legit), but I didn't try to type into the diagram, etc.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the template! I was able to type into it well enough using textboxes.

This thread has surved its purpose, so feel free to lock/delete this thread if you want.

You could just simply google for it. There are many websites that show that type of diagram. I use them all the time when i teach. Search the net, im sure you should be able to find something.

You can complete a complete diagram using word, or visio. But it is bit hard to cope with unless you are good with visio. My suggestion is to try a visio alternative. There are few good ones out there with easy tutes as well. This Visio alternative can solve your problem
