determine web publishing parameters from shapesheet?

[Scott]

Is it possible to determine the settings of web publishing parameters from
the shapesheet? For example, the user can select a graphic format (gif, jpg
or png) as an "alternate format for older browsers". Can I determine which
value is currently set by using a shapesheet formula? Failing that, can I
access the settings from VBA?

You can get the settings from the registry, if the setting doesn't
exist in the registry then the default value is used.

The location in the registry depends slightly upon the Visio version
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Visio\Solution\SaveAsWeb\settings
is a good place to start (for Visio 2003).

Thanks, Paul. So there's no handy-dandy shapesheet function that will let me
get the value then? I'll need VBA or other code to accomplish this?

Looks that way, and bear in mind that if the function hasn't been used
or only the default values have been accepted then there won't be any
appropriate registry entries at all. You'll have to play around with
each setting to find out what the registry key names are.
