Editing Custom Property Sets Drop Dwon Lists Visio 2003

[AndyNorth]

Using Visio 2003 I have a custom property that uses a drop down list
defined via a custom property set. I've set up the drop down list by
defining the type as "Fixed List" and then putting the values "a;b;c"
in the format box.

This works fine but the problem comes when I try and add an extra
option to the drop down list. I define the custom property set and
change the list to "a;b;c;d", when I apply this it adds "d" an option
but wipes all existing values in the diagram. I've tried applying the
change to both the shape master on the document stencil and directly to
the shapes themselves with the same result.


Any ideas how I can add the extra option without losing all existing
values?

Could you be more precise in your successives action because it's must work.
Nevertheless, I suppose you use the property set to apply your change. Be
sure not to uncheck delete existing property set before applying your
change.
