You try to edit an organization chart in a 2007 Microsoft Office program. If the organization chart was created in an earlier version of Microsoft Office, you may receive the following error message:
Cannot open this object because the Organization Chart Add-in for Microsoft Office programs is not installed. To open the Microsoft Office Setup dialog box and do a custom installation, in Control Panel, double-click Add or Remove Programs. Organization Chart is located under Microsoft Office PowerPoint.
This issue may occur when one of the following conditions is true:
- The organization chart was created in a Microsoft Office 2003 program or in a Microsoft Office XP program by using the Microsoft Organization Chart 2.0 add-in.
- The organization chart was created in a Microsoft Office 2000 program or an earlier Microsoft Office program by using MS Organization Chart 2.0.
To resolve this issue, install the Organization Chart Add-in for Microsoft Office programs component. To do this, follow these steps:
- Exit all 2007 Office programs.
- Click Start, click Control Panel, and then click Add or Remove Programs.
- Click the installed version of the 2007 Office program, and then click Change.
- Click Add or Remove Features, and then click Continue.
- On the Installation Options tab, expand Microsoft Office, and then expand Microsoft Office PowerPoint.
- Click the icon next to Organization Chart Add-in for Microsoft Office programs, and then click Run from My Computer.
