Microsoft Excel would do just fine to create charts for a small business - especially if you are only doing it for your employees. If you are doing charts to show potential investors, then investing in better chart creating software may make more sense. \n\nHowever, if you want improved charts, you can either get an additional plugin for your main chart software (whether you are using Excel or Corel or any other software); or redo the charts and make them look pretty with Adobe Illustrator. One plugin I like is CrystalGraphics (cost is $99), which has a product called Powerplug Charts that allow you to create more visually pleasing charts and graphs than what Excel can provide.

Corel Draw is the best for Vector Graphics and Text, I would say. For pictures (raster graphics), Adobe Photoshop is what I wud recommend. Otherwise there are many and choice is subjective, varies from person to person.

You can try this link: http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/r-mainCat-m-1-getting_started-i\n\nBut it depends on what angle you're asking from? Do you want answers to how the management style should be? I guess if you could be more specific, then it would be easier to help you. Anyways, general help is in that link. Have fun!

Sure.  Start with this link.  And please don't cry. :-)\n\nAdded:  First of all, all an org chart is a a visual representation of the information supplied in the link I gave you.  You could create one yourself.  Secondly, I found no such organizational chart on the Internet.\n\nBe creative and make your own, for goodness sake!

I'd simply use a table, however if you want to get very detailed, you could use the Word Drawing tools to do this same thing

If i had to choose between the two programs, I would always use Word for this.\nI am assuming that If you have access to Word & Excel then you would also have access to Powerpoint. If this is the case, then use Powerpoint. It allows more flexability in the placing of seperate pictures and text boxes then Word or Excel. \nPowerpoint is designed for presentations, but I have found that it is a great tool for doing posters and business cards, when I dont have access to Publisher or a similar program. It is easy to use and to manipulate items.\n\nAs far as tips to make the ad, it depends on what you are selling.\nIf its your old car or dishwasher, for example, a simple picture, a headline and info text is all you need eg\n\n                    TITLE FOR THING FOR SALE!!\n\n         ------------------\n         ------------------             2 years old\n         ------------------             $49.00 ono\n         ------------------             Call 01234 56789\n         ------------------             \n\n\nIf you are not trying to sell second hand items (garage sale style), but are selling for a business, the remember the 2 S's                              \n\n                                          Sexy Sells!\n\n\nMake it look good. \nPhotos MUST be of the best quality\nProof read and spell check\nColour coordinate\n\n\nKeep it SIMPLE!!\nAdds work best when they are simple and eye catching. Have small print if you need it, but the large print should ONLY tell the main facts, ie what it is, basic description, where to buy etc\nsmall print should be everything else, company info, disclaimer etc\n\nFinally whichever style of add you use, make it stand out. This can be done in one of three ways\n\n1) border art (simple is best, it should attract the eye, to look at the ad, and not be the only reason that you are looking)\n2) coloured paper (either plain, or simple paterned)\n3) coloured text\n\nTo advertise on the cheap, I would advise you to use plain YELLOW paper, as this is the most eye catching colour and will be noticed by more people.

You can create org charts fairly easily in Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Publisher.  I don't know what your experience level is with Microsoft Office Software but if you click on the two links below you'll find one to be a tutorial for each program and the second are actual templates you can download to make it even easier.  They don't give you near enough room for these links so I just chopped them in half so you could see everything.  Hope this helps.  :-)\n\nhttp://office.microsoft.com/en-us/\nassistance/HA011588171033.aspx\n\nhttp://office.microsoft.com/en-us/\ntemplates/CT010000401033.aspx

microsoft.com has a large selection of free templates for a number of business needs, like presentations, new products, proposals, etc.  The templates come with instructions and often tell you what information you should include and where to place it.  You'll need Microsoft products though (Word, Powerpoint, Excel, etc.) to use them.\n\nGood luck!

Check out how you can use the COM Interop for excel so you should be able to use the graphing capability of excel. There are a few third party tools like .net charting\n\nhttp://www.dotnetcharting.com/?aspnetban\n\nits bascially an addon to the .net framework to give the ability to create graphs

short answer, get MYOB and pre-select the business type, it will give you a complete chart of accounts applicable to that type of business.\n\nThere are some basic line items that every business will use, but in essence, you can, subject ot accounting standards and generally accepted accounting principles, create what you want.

I am assuming that you have the required graphic skills and are just looking for a tool more appropriate for the design of vector or bitmap graphics (versus Photoshop which is more of a photo editing tool)..with that in mind then look at Adobe Illustrator ( http://www.adobe.com/products/illustrator/main.html ) which I suspect has the largest market share among professional graphic designers.

Order a Carbelllo's catalog(or similar catalog). Most have charts in the hook section. Or just go to Academy

Go to Microsoft seating chart in your search engine.  Also, you can create your own in Microsoft word.  Just go to the art part and use the circles or squares to make your chart.  I find that easier.  Sometimes websites insert them in the wrong spot.  In addition, you can make windows, doors, carpets, etc. on word by using the shapes.
