Visio cannot work on a PDA.
Nearest you can get (I think)is to use an SVG viewer/editor on PDA, then
open SVG file on desktop in Visio.

All the methods for displaying a Visio drawing on a PDA involve taking a
"picture" of the drawing. At that point it is no longer a Visio file and can
not be changed to update the original Visio drawing.

Also the Visio file format is proprietory, so it is unlikely that anyone
other than MS can write a PDA program to open and manipulate a native Visio
drawing. Of course, with new XML format introduced in Visio 2003, a limited
version may be possible.
