Fishbone Diagram Template						[42]
HELP					© 2009 Vertex42 LLC

Although not angled like most fishbone diagrams, this one is very easy to edit and customize. Use cell formatting to add/remove
branches to the diagram. Insert rows to increase space for primary causes. Copy and paste columns to insert more categories.
For example, select columns C&D, copy, then insert the copied columns before column E or G. Highlight sub-categories to distinquish
between categorization vs. causality. See the Outline worksheet for an even simpler approach.				[42]
