2007 PRO data linking

[Scott]

Anyone know where the data linking info is stored in a Visio 2007 Pro
document? If I link shapes on a page to an Excel spreadsheet, for example, I
can't find where the crucial info is stored. I tried the document shapesheet
and the page shapesheet (because linking is done page by page).

I'd like to find so I can alter it via automation. As one example, I'd like
to enable an add-in to update the linked document location if the linked
spreadsheet is moved.

Thanks...

If you save your Visio drawing as XML, a part might be read and others are
human unreadable.

Data linking settings are stored in RecordSet objects in the Visio file.

programmatically.
