Database and Visio

B

blanktree

I have been trying to add a database to a network Drawing of Cisco Switches. In each tab of the Visio diagram I have a different location and a number of different switches

I would like to database these visio diagrams so that

1.) There is a label beside each switch with the Switches name(database record
2.) Other Static information on each page such as Lanspan Circuit number
3.) a hyperlink on each switch that will show a query on that switch on each port. (ie I double ckick the switch and it brings up a query sheet for that particular switch that will show Port Settings, Description Etc.

Is this possible to do or am I trying something that can't be done in Visio 2002 Standard?

you get to write code in both visio and the database. of course there are a
lot of preassumptions (like you already have all of the data in the
database).
