RePost - Visio Link to SharePoint

[bhartenb]

For the sake of clarity of Subject I've reposted this.

I'm using Visio 2007 and importing Visio floorplans into SharePoint Services
2.0.

I would like to change the Visio floorplan on the LAN and have the update
propagate to the drawing on SharePoint.

Is this possible?
Thank you

I can't find it right now, but recently I showed an example of how after
checking a drawing into sharepoint (w/v2007) I could check it back out and
the resave it after changes had been made. I was using sharepoint services
3.0, but since the function of document storage is pretty basic there
shouldn't be a lot of difference. What impressed me most was the integration
on the v2007 side.

Visio versioning in SharePoint should be the same as any other Office
document, providing he's storing the master copy in the document library (I
get the impression that he's not).

A slicker way to share Visio floor plans is to save the Visio as a Web Page,
then link to it from a Page Viewer Web Part. If the Visio document is linked
to a database, you can make it display custom properties, search, etc. Very
powerful.
