Alternative to Microsoft Visio

[asheesh1_2000]

I am looking for an alternative to Microsoft Visio, i.e. some software which can open VSD files.

I hv seen DIA etc , they act as replacement of Visio in the sense that they use there own formats but then do open the VSD. I need something which can open VSD file and is freeware or opensource.

Humm Open Office does have an application called Draw. I think this is their answer to Visio. But I couldn't figure out if it supposed vsd files or not.

visio smokes draw , but open office is nice!

Give SmartDraw a try. It's not freeware or opensource, but it's a great alternative to Visio.
