putting own XML node in Visio XML file

[xargon]

Hi everyone,

I have a problem with the visio XML format. I have the server stream a
visio document to a client with some variables. What I wanted to do was
embed some custom XML into the visio XML and pass that on tot he visio
document. However, the Visio document does not open if I add some custom
nodes to it.

Does anyone know how I can set some custom node to visio XML. I thought it
would skip the XML that it does not need.

Cheers!

are you putting it into solution xml?

i think it only skips SolutionXML, try embedding your custom XML using that
(has to be "well-formed" XML).
i've tried it before and i was able to perform round-trip operations.

check out the Visio SDK (Code Librarian in particular) for examples.

Hey guys!

Thanks for the reply. Did not know about SolutionXML. That works!
