Visio VBA Macros Available at Startup

[Bob Sandor]

Hi folks,
I'm using Visio 2002, and I'm trying to develop a VBA macro that will
be started when Visio starts up. Very much like normal.dot in Word or
personal.xls in Excel. The goal is to be able to use a simple macro I
wrote, on many different Visio docs, without containing the macro code
in each doc.

I've searched the net, this newsgroup, MSDN, and the Visio Help Files
for an answer, and can't seem to find one. I don't have the option of
creating an Add-in, so I'm hoping there's some solution similar to Word
and Excel.

I think I got close to one solution. In the options, under the File
Paths tab, there's a setting that let's you specify a "Start-up"
directory. Help says the directory should contain your "Add'in's and
Macros". This is where I get stuck. If I can put a macro in there,
what format should it be in? I tried exporting the VBA code directly
to a file, and put it in that directory (visio_macros.bas). That
didn't do anything.

Please help...

Thanks in advance,
Bob

Sorry everyone. I just had the realization that there's a whole other
forum for VBA stuff in Visio. Disregard this post.
