I am trying to create a visio flow chart with visual basic 2005 but I keep running into the same problem. I have added a reference to the Microsoft Visio type Library, but when I try to Declare a variable as a Visio.Application of Visio.Document I get an error "Visio.Application not defined" It seems as if adding the COM reference to the Visio Type Library has no effect. Is there some setup that I am missing?

I have a visio flowchart that represents sequence of questions to enter an order. I wrote a VB 2008 program, that represents steps from this flowchart in a wizard-like questionnaire. Now I'm asked to represent this flowchart graphically in a window,and make each step clickable. Clicking on a flowchart box would open the relevant wizard page. Can someone suggest how I can accomplish this, or know of some article or example that would point me in the right direction?

Need to show visio diagram on .net FORM, and need to be able to click on the shapes. Thats it. no creation, no stencils, no editing. Basicly just catch the click event from axDrawingControl.I'm having a "very" hard time to dig trough the visio DOM, disabling all of the functions, tool bars, menus..I basically will ever need a view-only diagram. So, to all the interop gurus out there, point me in the right direction please..I have the SDK, its (crap) not very useful in my case. Seems like a lot of resources wasted and lots of hustle for view only.
View 3 RepliesI have started a little project for myself to become a little more accustomed to drawing in VB.NET. I decided to make an application that looks a little bit like Microsoft Visio.
Until now, I have been able to create an image 'layer' on a blank PictureBox by clicking somewhere in the PictureBox. When I click on such an image layer, it is selected (and a blue rectangle, and its text are drawn). I can also drag the selected image layer.
The code for this is as follows:
The ImageLayer class:
vb.net
Public Class ImageLayer
#Region " Properties "
[Code]....
how to do all this; I'm starting to fear this project is going to be a little much for me...
So, do I really have to do everything manually? So the images locations, their size etc should all depend on the zoom level? Or is there something 'premade' I can use?
I'm automating Visio 2003 from a VB.NET app. My code looks like this (with the uninteresting stuff removed):
Dim objApp As New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Visio.InvisibleApp
objApp.Settings.ShowFileOpenWarnings = False
Dim objDoc As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Visio.Document
objDoc = objApp.Documents.Open(VisioFilename)
I've found that the last line causes Visio to raise a hidden MessageBox saying:
Macros in this document are disabled because the security level is high, and the macros have not been digitally signed or verified as safe. To run the macros, you can either have them signed or change your security level.Since this is going to be running on computers I don't control with files I don't control neither of those options works for me. I really don't care that the macros are disabled, I'm just using Visio to convert the file from it's native format to SVG. I certainly don't want to suggest to users that they lower the security level, nor would I want to lower it for them.
As you can see from my code above, I turn off file open warnings but that doesn't seem to include the macro warning. Since I'm using Visio.InvisibleApp it turns out the warning isn't displayed to the user. Running a visible instance of Visio won't help because I'm creating a batch converter, even if the message was visible it means the user would have to click OK for each file. That would make the batch conversion feature essentially useless.
I see that the Visio class has a VBAEnabled property but it's read only. If there was a way I could just turn off VBA when opening the file it would likely solve the problem. I've looked all through the properties and through the Settings property on the class and can't find anything. I've done a bunch of Google searching and can't find anything that addresses this issue.Anyone know if that warning can be suppressed when using automation with Visio? Can I do it if I switch to Visio 2007?
i want to write a code that user can drag and drop an icon to layout which this layout become consist of coordinate (x,y) and when icon was dropped to layout by right click appear a menu.

What I need help on is a code so that after every ".txt" it will place a "/" so the string will look like this:
