John, MS will send you a 30 day evaluation version of Visio, Prof. and
Std. You can then decide which is more appropriate for your project. You
may find that you need the enterprise network add in. If applicable, I
would seriously consider using Visio 2000, so that you do not have to
deal with the activation PITA.
A ton of information about Visio is available at:
