[XTerminator]

Hi,

Does anyone know about Flowchart Drawing Tools or DFD drawing tools?
If yes, have you used them?
Which one is the best?
Are there free ones available?
Thanks.

@KingKrool,
Will give SmartDraw and Rational Rose a try.
Thanks.

They are commercial tho u can probably get evaluation versions.
Rational rose can be dlded from IBM's site via secure dld - 15 days only and no crax available tho.

[KingKrool]

Yeah.. well SmartDraw wud have been perfect for you.
Rational Rose I guess is not really what u wanted - it is more of UML. Damn weird crap. Used for that most boring of all software subjects - Software Engineering.
