Examples and readme are included in the zip file

Get it working:
-Install graphviz (http://graphviz.org/Download.php)
-Download Excel to Graphviz
-Open one of the ExcelToGraphviz workbooks
-Go to sheet settings and update "dotpath" to where graphviz' dot.exe was installed (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Graphviz2.38\bin\dot.exe)
-Generate the flow diagram with cntrl-M
-Import from older version with cntrl-I

This tool was initially made to show the usefulness of a service registry or service catalog in an enterprise integration environment. Therefore most examples are (anonymized) output of its use with ESB's at various telecom, banking and logistics companies
