Visio should allow selection of a frame per hyperlink destination.

[Pete Kember]

I use Visio (and have done for years) and would really appreciate it if you
would place the selection for a frame within your hyperlinks that would
override the page default and allow the web pages that are created in Visio
to be even more useful that they are.

I was able to do this before 2003 version by putting the text
"Target="{FRAME} at the end of the address (where {FRAME} was the frame
name).

This tricked Visio into doing what I needed and still do as i have used
Visio and Word to create web processes with frames and hyperlinks.

You have changed the way that the text is parsed when converted to Web pages
now and so my workaround does not work any more - This means that i cannot
upgrade from Visio 2002... I would really like to.

PLEASE will you add this, just as you have it in Word... Or tell me of a
workaround that I can use now.

Thank you.
