Visio functionality without Visio installed
Hi all,
I have a task to create empty Visio document file (.vsd) with single page in it and drop few shapes there. My problem is that I have to write Windows console application for this purpose and it must run in the server environment where Visio is not installed. Is it possible to do that? If I run application below on my development environment, new instance of Visio is started. But, on my server, where my application must run, Visio is not installed and Visio application launch will fail. What I can do in this situation? using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; using Visio = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Visio; namespace MyNamespace { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { Visio.Application App = new Visio.Application(); } } } Development environment: Win XP, VS 2005 (C#), MS Visio 2007, Runtime environemt: Win Srv 2003 Thanks in advance, Probke |

Visio functionality without Visio installed
Hello Probke,
Have you considered assembling an xml document (.vdx) rather than a binary one? What, or rather how complex a document are you trying to create? If it's just 'a few shapes' then perhaps the xml route will work for you?
