Save document to stream or database

[news.microsoft.com]

I'm trying to figure out how to serialize a visio document to a sql 2000
database. The document object has a SaveAsEx method but it only saves to a
filename. Are there any examples around that save a document to a OLEDB
datasource? I hope I won't need to save it to disk and then copy to file
into the database. I'm using C# with the visio 2003 SDK.

Thanks

Do you need to save the whole document? You could consider saving XML of
pertinent business data, then re-creating the drawing on recall.
Alternatively, SharePoint offers check in\check out.
