Linking shapes to SQL database

P

planetman

Please can someone help me - I'm tearing my hair out!
I am creating Visio drawings of our server racks using Visio 2003 SP2
and HP shapes/stencils from www.visiocafe.com
I am trying to link the shapes in the drawing to a SQL database and
then publish as a web page.

I have run the database wizard and selected the correct record in the
database and in the Visio drawing everything looks and works fine. If I
choose properties on the shape I get the correct data from the
database.

However, if I then try to save as a web page and publish the files, it
all goes screwy. Some of the shapes are fine, but when I Ctrl-click on
other shapes I get the data for the rack from the SQL database rather
than the server. Also, if I change the Visio drawing slightly and move
the server shape so that it is not linked to the rack, it works fine.
Some shapes that are linked to the rack work fine though!

I would be very appreciative of any help please as I'm going quite
bald.

Regards

Mark
