Can Visio2003 drawings not launch as webpages?

[Brenda Meehan]

I am new to Visio2003 and am working at a company where the product isn't
supported by the internal Help Desk. Is there a way to change the way a
drawing displays? It has a .vsd extension but when I select it from Windows
Explorer, it launches as a web page.

It sounds like they have the visio viewer installed on your system (thus the
desire to show it in the browser).

If you locate a Visio drawing right mouse click on it and select open with.
You should be presented with the available programs that can open the file.
Once you select the application to open that file type you have an option
to always open in a certain application. Under most conditions if the
Visio application is installed on the box it tends to own the file
extension unless it has been changed.
