inserting/importing a page from a different visio file

[frank w.]

anyone know if there's a way to import the pages of a
different visio file into another. i'm collaborating with
a team and we'd rather not "select all/copy/paste" for
each page.

thanks.

I wish I had better news, but there is no nice clean and easy way to copy a
page from one Visio file to another. It's gets especially messy when you
have background pages.

However I would reccomend de-select all (make sure NOTHING is selected) on
the page you want to copy and then select Edit->Copy Drawing.

This request has been passed on to the development team (by me, multiple
times). It didn't make it into V2003, but I'm still hopeful for the next
version.

It might also be possible to write a VB add-on that can do this....

Sounds like a feature opportunity...
