Real time data in visio ?????

A

Anil

I have developed a screen in Visio choosing the Process Engineering category
and placed a label on the screen to display the data continously . The data
is picked up from the file say c:\test.txt.This file (c:\test.txt)is updated
with random data from a simulator program running on the same machine. This
program works fine when i run from Visio. The value gets updated on the
screen every second. But when i use Visio viewer to deploy my application
the application opens automatically in IE 5.0. I am able to view all the
screens and navigate also. But my label control does not show any change of
data. Instead it shows static data. Basically from IE screen it is not able
to pick up the data from the file . Hope i am clear in my problem.Please
provide me solution for this problem. My doubt is that with VisioViewer is
it possible to see the real time data?

Please suggest.

I don't think you'll be able to pull this off with the viewer, but maybe an
XML-based solution would do the trick.
