VB & Visio Drawing Control

[Michael, TransmissionsLLC]

I am using the visio drawing control in a VB 6 form. I load a document into
it at runtime by setting the source, then set the source to "" as per the
help file, then make some changes to the underlying document. I assign a
GUID via object.unique(visGetOrMakeGUID), but when I save the file it
doesn't seem to save the GUIDs with the objects. Can anyone explain what I
am doing wrong?

Thanks,

Michael

I should add that I am using VB 6 on Windows XP with the following code:


.....other code.......

frmMainMenu.DrawingControl1.Src = DestinationDir & FileName
frmMainMenu.DrawingControl1.Src = ""
Set vsoDocument = frmMainMenu.DrawingControl1.Document

'********
'stuff here that uses that uses the
object.unique(visGetOrMakeGUID) on various Visio shapes
'****************
'save the visio file
vsoDocument.SaveAs DestinationDir & FileName

....other code.....

Hi - I figured out my problem and it was unrelated to Visio.
