Visio question

[Brian]

I have Visio 2002 Standard and am trying to database a diagram with numerous
tabs that shows our network switches grouped by location (each tab is a
different location)
Each tab has different number of switches.

Is it possible to database each tab and leave labels beside each switch that
shows the switchname( I want these names to come from a Database Record)
I would also like to double click the picture and get a query sheet that
shows all of the ports for that switch.


On each page I would also like a text box that shows the Circuit number
(from a database record)

I have searched the net but am starting to wonder if this is possible.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Check out the Link to Database function under Tools \ Macros \ Visio Extras
\ Link to Database.

Some of the more simple tasks can be done via the Link to Database function.
Others would require that you write a VBA project that includes a data
connection method like ADO. ADO can query the database and Visio can then
display the results on the page.
