		<description>Other than using the db wizards I haven&#039;t done this kind of automation but I can see it would be worthwhile.  Looks like I have something else to read about.</description>

		<description>The code you&#039;ve got here works wonderfully, and I can tie to to a database using an array variable to populate the box names.  However, how can I accommodate multiple decisions in a single flowchart (i.e., box 1 flows to box 2, which is a decision.  No terminates, and yes goes to box 4, which is another decision.  No for that decision terminates, and yes continues to box 5.  Box 5 is another decision.  No flows to Box 6, and Yes skips Box 6 and goes to 7, where Box 6 also flows.

How much more code would I need to make that happen?</description>

		<description>Hello Visio Guy,  
     My team and I are just starting to use Visio.  Some of us have never used it before, and we are having a hard time finding the meanings behind the shapes, for example what is a paper tape, a card, a loop limit?  We have looked in two different books and no answers.  Are these terms that are commonly used in a different world then ours?  Or is there a place where I can find out this information?  Thank you for your help.</description>

		<description>Hi Chris

Your FC is looking wonderful. I got what I exactly want. 
I have two questions:

1. I had download your utility but when I tried to run it, says that the macros are not enabled. Contact the download site.

2. If I want to first draw the Visio Flowchart and then I want to link or play with those process boxes using VB, Do you know how to do it? If yes then please send one sort of utility which works in this way.

Thanks

		<description>CVS People,

Go to John Marshall&#039;s Visio page, under VBA Information. Search the page for the &quot;Read Text&quot; example. This might get you started. If I had any brains I&#039;d write a CVS importer and sell it as Donate-Ware for $7.50 :)</description>

		<description>You may as well delete the comments they bear little meaning without the diagram.

		<description>Great work Visio Guy - Thanx.

Ter, could you post the link you found regarding .csv imports?

I&#039;ve written some code to extract the dependencies from Microsft Access Queries and would like to integrate this into a Visio Flow Chart program.

 ----&gt; ------&gt;  -------&gt;  ------- 
                   &#124;                &#124;  ^                &#124;
                   &#124;                &#124;  &#124;                &#124;
                Left Join   Left Join  Right Join   Inner Join
                   &#124;                &#124;  &#124;                &#124;
                   V                V  &#124;                &#124;
                         

Of course this diagram is very simplistic compared to the 300+ interdependant objects in my Database - this is why a flow chart is necessary.

The new Object Dependency tool in Access 2007 is helpful but not what I need. I need to see the entire chart relativity. For instance, in the above - Query 5 has a source as does Query 4 and this relationship would need to be charted as well.

Happy hunting,

		<description>Hello,

I came across an article that talked about Visio 2000 being able to import a .csv file from the File-Open and would create a Flowchart for you.
The data in the excel file would look like the following:
Shape	6.1		Global Office Locations		
Shape	6.2		Media Relations		
Shape	6.3		Business Proposals		
Shape	10		Manager Profile		
Link				1	2
Link				1	3
Link				1	4

I am using Visio 2003 and it dosn&#039;t support this ?  How can i do something similar using visio 2003 ?

		<description>Does anybody know or have an idea if this can be implemented with a database easily?  What I&#039;m trying to do is create a drawing from a database of relational tables for requirements gathering.  So for a example a User Requirement might fulfill 1-to-many Business Requirements, and I have an table in between to show this relationship.  So it looks like this:
[BusinessRequirement]----[BusinessToUserLink]----[UserRequirement]

An example of the drawing might be:

B1--U1
&#124;______U2
&#124;__________U3

How could I use Visio to create a visual representation of the database RECORDS, not the table design.  Thanks.</description>
