How do I get data out of Visio ER diagrams?

[Kevin L]

I am trying to extract data definition from Visio ER diagrams
programmatically and load them to my Metadata repository. I found some code
that uses functions CellExists and Cells, but they only work if I know the
name for the cells that I am looking for. Does any one have a solution for
this?

Thanks.

the answer is the data is in a proprietary module

Hi Kevin,

I have a utility (Orthogonal toolbox, free, url below) on my website that
can be used to export the metadata as XML.

HTH,
Scot.
