Building an interactive decision tree/flow chart

Hi,

I want to build a flow chart in where the end user does not see the full flow chart. The goal is that the user will answer questions either Yes or No and then they will be given 1 of 5 outcomes based on the decisions they make. The flow chart is relatively simple - the maximum decisions that can be made before reaching an outcome is 10.

I have built my flow chart in Visio. Does Visio or any other Microsoft platform have the functionality that will only show the part of the flow chart as the user moves through it rather than the full chart?

Thanks,

    Hi @Hollie Watson

    In my opinion, you need the help of code.
    Here is an article "Microsoft Office Reference Guide", although it is still a little far from what you need, but it points out we can use Control and VBA code to show the specified layer.
    (Important! Follow the steps in this section carefully. Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Before you modify it, back up the registry for restoration in case problems occur. )

    As "office-visio-itpro" focuses more on general issue of Visio Client, the issues of VBA code needs to add another tag.
    Thanks for your understandings.
