Can visio 2003 open zip files?

[Stefan Lasiewski]

I'm downloading some visio colllections from visiocafe.com . These
collections all come as .zip files.

Can Visio read these compressed files automatically?

No..you have to unzip them.

Stefan,

If you unzip them into C:\Documents and Settings\<Stefan?>\My Documents\My
Shapes, they will appear in Visio under My Shapes on the Shapes menu. I
created subfolders in that directory for each vendor and that works really
well for me.
