OLEObject

[Laurent Espariat]

Hi,

I'm interesting to know if it is possible in C++ or VBA to invoke methods
(edit, open) of an oleobject inserted in a visio page.
This function exists in shapesheet "FAIREVERBOLE" in french.

Best regards,

Hi, there: It depends on the object. If the object is a COM object that
exposes methods like this, then you've got a lot more options. Chapter 24
covers using ActiveX controls in Visio solutions. Here's the link:

Also, you can check out the Visio 2002 SDK Code Librarian, in the Office
Integration section -- look for the Excel Sheet in Drawings for an example
on how to use an Excel OLE-embedded object (spreadsheet).
