Hi,

I could not find the Crows Foot Notation stencil as I created a new Visio doc using Crow's Foot Data Notation template. Can anyone please tell me where I could download the related stencils?

Thanks,

Alice

Hi,

Which Visio 2013 edition do you use? Visio Standard 2013 or Visio Professional 2013 ? As far as I know, Crow's Foot Data Notation template is used in Visio Professional 2013.

If you use Visio Professional 2013 and the stencil still disappear. Please try repair Visio 2013.

I too am confused by this approach to customer relations by Microsoft. Why on earth would they provide the document templates for the Crow's Foot diagram (as well as several others) in Visio Standard but not provide a way to get the shapes/stencils. It seems like some kind of marketing ploy to get people to upgrade to Visio Pro. Is there some technical reason that the stencils won't work in Visio Standard? I would be happy to purchase the stencils if that were possible?
