Referencing Page Names in a Custom Properties Dialog Box

Hi,

I created a report based on the elements of a page in a Visio document.
However, I would like to be able to run this report in an empty page of
the same document and reference the page name that this report should
be based on. The reason for this being that some pages might be too
long to fit a report as well as the contents. Also, I would like to
avoid using any other application like Excel for exporting information.

The way I tried to do this was by customizing the properties of the
report object so that on drop it will ask what page to make reference
to. My idea was to provide the name of all pages within the same
document in a fixed list for easier selection. Then, on selecting a
given page name, have the report reference that page and run the query
it is supposed to run.

However, I can't figure out how to pass the PAGENAME argument (if that
is the one I should actually be using) to the report object. Basically,
I have been unable to populate a fixed list with the names of all pages
in the Visio document. If anyone knows the solution to this issue or
have any ideas on how to make this happen, it will be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks.
