ASP.NET and Visio

[Trond]

I have been asked to make an ASP.NET application. The application should
enable the user to upload a Visio (2003) file together with some metadata.
So I am wondering if it is possible to write code server side that opens the
file and extract data from it and insert it into DB. The application will be
an online solution enabling users to browse through diagrams created in
Visio. Preferable without having to install the viewer, but that depends on
if it is possible to generate an image of the graph.
The Visio diagrams sometimes has an url attached to one of the shapes, so
that is something I should grab and add to DB. Not sure though so any hints
is super.

Before I start to read a lot about Visio and the object model I was thinking
it could be smart to ask out here if it is possible and maybe get a few
hints
Best regards
Trond

as I hear your requirements, your application has to support file transfer
and library of visio. The short solution would be to research sharepoint.
