Making a simple flow chart:5 easy steps.

STEP 1Open Flowol 3 and choose a mimic by pressing the little lighthouse symbol.

STEP 2Place start block(s) for the beginning of your flowchart.

STEP 3Choose either a decision (diamond), command (parallelogram) or a process (square) for the flow chart to execute.

STEP 4Using the arrow tool, click on the start block, and then on the block that you want to happen next.

STEP 5Place an end block for the end of your flowchart. OR repeat step 3 and 4 until you have achieved the desired result.
