Automating Visio

L

Lee Newson

Hi,

I am programatically creating a timeline using VB.Net and i have got to the
point where i can get the data i need from the Project Data Service and then
drop all the shapes i need onto the page.

to set the begin and end dates for the timeline i am using the following
line:

vsoTimeline.CellsU("User.visBeginDate").FormulaU =
VisApp.ConvertResult("1/1/2004", Visio.VisUnitCodes.visDate,
Visio.VisUnitCodes.visInches)

I now want to change the interval date format so that instead of looking
like "01/01/2004" it displays as "Jan 04". I am guessing that where i have
User.visBeginDate i have to use a different "Universal Name" but i dont know
what it is or how i can find it, and even then i might be going about this
the wrong way... any ideas?

failing that does anyone know where or how i can find the Universal Names
for the various properties?

Cheers

Lee
