David J Parker's background has been in data visualization ever since he struggled to produce lists of hospital equipment from Computer Aided Design models of buildings as a budding architect in the '80s. He moved into building and infrastructure asset management in the late '80s using a Unix system and gradually migrated to Windows-based systems throughout the '90s. He became a European Business partner of Visio Corporation in 1996 and presented the database-linked Visio solutions that he was providing merchant banks in London and New York with at several international conferences. David started bVisual Ltd. in 1998, which provides Visio-based solutions to various industries, and became a Silver-level Microsoft partner. He has been a Microsoft MVP (Visio) for the last 12 years and has helped Microsoft Corp, UK and Western Europe, by providing Visio solutions, training, website content, and presentations. David has had several books on Visio published and has been presenting Visio/SharePoint integration courses for many years for Microsoft Western Europe, from Oslo in the North down to Lisbon in the South. He has presented at SQL and SharePoint Saturday conferences and writes a regular blog for people interested in Microsoft Visio.

Which programming language should you use with Visio?

Microsoft Visio comes with Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) built into it, which is a very useful interface for exploring the object model, and testing out ideas. In addition, Visio has a macro recorder that can provide a quick and dirty way of exploring how some of the actions are performed. However, the resultant code from the macro recorder can be very verbose in parts, and completely miss out some bits because Visio is running code inside one of the many Add-ons or COM add-ins that may be installed.

If you want to use VBA then you will need to run Visio in Developer Mode by checking the option available from the Visio Options dialog (use File | Options to display this), in the Advanced group.

Developer Mode will also add some features to other parts of the Visio interface, such as additional options on the right-mouse menu when a page and shape is selected.

Ever wonder why speech recognition systems don't understand the Scottish accent, or what would happen if an astronaut only ate mac 'n' cheese, or other spurious reflections you'd have at a bar? We did, then collated those deliberations into absurd research articles with fake figures and methodologies inspired by even more fictionally absurd studies.
