Programmatically inserting an image

[Pedro]

Hello,

I have a C# app that automatically creates a visio document via the visio
interop. I create lots of shapes, but can't figure out how to insert a
picture. I've tried using InsertFromFile, but that only causes the name of
the file to appear on the screen.

Thanks,
Pedro

Sorry for the VBA code, but try something like

Application.ActiveWindow.Page.Import "C:\Documents and Settings\John\My
Documents\My Pictures\42713B2if_w.jpg"

A quick way of working out what to do is to use the Macro Recorder to record
the task and then take a look at the code in the VBE. The generated code
relating to UndoScope can be discarded.
