Rene,

Thank you for offering to help, but I feel I'm getting into pretty deep
water. The problem is that I do not just need to be able to draw/edit the
picture but also need to access the associated object variables within the
rest of the BlackBox application. It may be possible to access the Visio MVC
objects in some way. I expect however this is way beyond my level of
proficiency. On top of that I simply draw with Visio occaisionally but I do
not have time to learn how to program it. I also do not have much time, and
what time I have I want to get the basics of BlackBox straight. I also just
saw the message Gerhard Marent whose solution seems much more direct (and I
hope easy).

So if you don't mind I'll defer for the moment.

Incorporating foreign views / applications may seem a bit daunting to me but
I do recognise it's importance, otherwise we'd need to rebuild every
application in BlackBox instead of going the component route (i.e.
incorporating foreign components). I do think that needs a good introduction
however (starting simple and then building up). For that reason I suggest
this subject should definitely be part of the proposed Practical Guide to
BlackBox. I should have and will put that in the outline. I hope you will
contribute.

Thanks again, Bart

If you have Visio, it should be an easy thing to do generate the BB
interface for the API.

If you need any explanations on how to use the API, I think I can help.

Embedding a Visio Document as a Views.View via OleViews.NewObjectView is an
easy thing.

Tell me, if you need more info.

Rene
