Modifying the Entity shape's property

[Arun]

Hi,

I've got a visio document that represents the data model of our oracle
database. I would like to access the shapes that represent the database
tables and retrieve their properties (database table related like Columns,
triggers Indexes etc) and edit them. For instance I would like to add more
indexes for a given table (represented by the 'Entity' shape). Since I have
to do it in large numbers, I would like to do this programmatically using the
automation. I imported the visiolib tlb file, created the interop assembly
and gone up to accessing the Page's shapes programmatically in C#. But I'm
stuck there since the shape's type is just System.__ComObject and could not
proceed further. Can anybody help me out please?

Thanks

Hi! Were you able to figure out a way to do this? I was looking in VBA and
I can add a reference to the database model library, but I can't figure out a
way to instantiate an entity or model object from the Visio document or
shapes.

Thanks,
Shara
