Drawing Control IsDirty?

[Forrest Liu]

I wonder if there is a way to know whetere there has be changes made to the
document in the drawing control.
What I want to accomplish is pretty basic. I tried to search the net and
books but could not find a way. When the user want to close the visio
document, I want to check if there are changes and prompt the user to save
the file first if there are changes.

Try visControl.Document.Saved

The Saved command is the dirty flag you are looking for. The idea is that if
the doc has been saved, it is "freshly clean". I believe this works inside
of the drawing control as well.

Even better, you can programmatically set the Saved flag, which is handy for
discarding changes.
