"When you want to start creating a Diagram, you need to make the Drawing toolbar visible by clicking View -- Toolbars -- Drawing. You can do this in Writer, Impress, or Draw; however (for reasons I'm not sure of) the Drawing toolbar in Writer lacks the special line connectors that make it much easier to connect shapes and objects. If you want to make an organizational chart or diagram that contains shapes connected by lines for use in a Writer document, you can create it in either Draw or Impress and then copy the final product into Writer."
