John Goldsmith's visLog

Just for starters

So, this being the first proper post, I'm going to kick things off with a look at some of the basics of how to get at both the ShapeSheet and the VBA programming environment so that I can refer people back to this in future posts if required.

This is by no means a full course; it's intended to be a quick run through of the key elements for anyone who's not tried any ShapeSheet or VBA development before.

Welcome

Hello and welcome to a new blog about all things Visio.  My aim with this blog is twofold:

• to take a look at some of the regular problems that tend to crop up on the newsgroups
• to encourage users who perhaps weren't aware of or haven't delved into the ShapeSheet and programming that makes Visio such a powerful tool

If this is the only Visio blog you've come across then you may be glad to know that it's not the only one and it's my intention to point you towards other sites over the coming posts.  (There's a list of the ones I read over on the right.)
