In the help file for Power Point it indicates that I should be able to add a
box for a superior in the Organization Chart feature.  However, I only seem
to have the option to add a "coworker", "subordinate", or "assistant".  Any
suggestions on how to add a "superior"?

Hi

I think you must have been reading a 2007 help article as AFAIK you can't
add superiors in 2003. If you describe what you want the chart to look like
I'm sure we can come up with a work around (one of which would be to create
your own using autoshapes, connectors and the alignment buttons).

There is a short training course on everything org chart in 2003 here:

Another workaround is to turn off the autolayout on the Org Chart and drag
the other box into place. Then draw your own line using an autoshape.

I think I made an entry using this workaround in Fixing PPT Annoyances.
