Less Coding

[Rhett_Y]

I am very disappointed with this program. I am using 2002 pro. Here is what
I would like from microsoft:

1. less coding, I am not a code freak, and I bet over half of the people
using microsoft programs are not code freaks either (just look at the message
boards)

2. If I want to connect a site to a database, lets make it alot easier.
Alot easier
3. Maybe take a hint from Macromedias Dreamweaver for templates. The setup
of a template in visio just sucks. I want to be able to setup a template
that is linked to say 18 pages layout etc. I would then like to say here is
my database and be able to populate each box with what I want from the
database.

Thanks for the feedback. I agree that there is a significant amount of
coding required to link data to Visio diagrams. Hopefully we can address
some of the pain points in the future.

Mark...

I hope MS does too.. That would be a huge improvement on the product...
Man I have a list of things I would like to see in the next versions.....

The more and more I use the Ms Office products, the more and more I am
looking for an alternative....

MS for some reason makes it way to hard for the average person to do
simple things..... Where as other products do them... Just very
frustrating...
