guys,
We can draw lines by clicking Insert>line. Is there any way we can write along these lines?


Thanks in advance!

Write as in type?
Those lines are graphics, pictures.

What are you trying to do?

You may want to look at Please Fill Out This Form - Creating a Form for some ideas.

well, I am trying to draw a diagram. The lines indicate network connections and I want to specify the type of network connection along these lines. The lines were taken from the default shapes in the insert tab.

OK
Visio would work better for this.

Would SmartArt work better than shapes? It allows for text in some places.

Otherwise, if your lines are horizontal or vertical, you could add Text Boxes. For angled lines you would have to use Word Art, I believe.
