hyperlink from excel to visio

[Robert Vega]

I'm trying to create a hyperlink in Excel that will open a specific page
within a Visio file, but I can't figure out how to specify that page. I have
the 2002 versions of both.

I think you can insert a bookmark in Visio (sorry, no Visio to double-check
anymore). So if you insert a bookmark in the Visio page, and call it
"MyBookmark", then from Excel you should be able to create a hyperlink to
the Visio file, then just add this to the end of the hyperlink: #MyBookmark.

Thanks! That was almost exactly it. Actually, you just need to put #NAME
where NAME is the name of the page you want to link to in Visio, but I
wouldn't have figured that out otherwise.

Cool. It's been a long time since I used Visio, and I don't have it anymore.
