I am very curious how to do the .mpp viewing in a web part, did you figure this out? I checked your references, but to no avail, did not find anything... thoughts?

For showing .mpp file in a webpart, I didn't investigate it further more.

I will post here if I get the solution.

Thanks/Elton

Nice Tip.

2 questions if I may.

1. Any way to have one page setup and pass the name of the new file to load to the viewer depending on what the user clicks?

2. How I do this with Word? PDFs?

Thanks,
Greg

Greg, if my understanding is correct, you want to create two web parts. In the first one all filenames are listed like the Windows Explorer. When user click a filename, the content of the selected file will appeared in the second web part.

I think these two web parts could be created using Consumer/Provider model, and the connection parameter is the selected filename. Here is an excellent article on this topic, "A Developer's Introduction to Web Parts", http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/odc_SP2003_ta/html/sharepoint_northwindwebparts.asp

For the word/pdf question, sorry I don't have any expertise on it. Just guess the Content Editor Web Part may help.

Thanks/Elton

Hi thanks for you advice, but the "viso webpart" looks liek a picture, rather than an active element.

Is it also possible to use the visio activily - hyperlinks in the flow which send you to a specific part of the documentation?

If yes, is this hardcoded file location or a relative location to where you can send the hyperlink?

Maybe you can help me, thanks in advance!

Yes, I have the same feeling with you, that the visio web part is not flexible enough. I have no experience to make it active, so can't help you more on this.

Thanks/Elton

Thanks, and besides read only, can we edit Visio files in Sharepoint?

Actually, I've found the width and height need to be 800x600 or some ratio slightly higher or lower (depending the page/zone layout)for it to display largely enough in the Web Part to be useful. In fact I tried this ratio

width="1024" height="768" with

<param name="Zoom" value="-3"> and it looks pretty good to me.

Save the visio file as a .vdx (xml) file. Use the "Page Viewer Web Part" in Sharepoint to display the .vdx file. Using IE 5 or later will automatically display the file as a webpart with the visio viewer tool bar. Unfortunately any hyperlinks in the .vdx file open in the web part. Also there is no data refresh to connected data source which is very irritating.

Does anyone know how to change the visio viewer web part to open hyperlinks in a new tab?

An alternative solution that incorporates a Visio diagram into a SharePoint 2007 non-publishing page (team site page) and renders the diagram fully functional can be found at this page: http://docucentric.net/index.php?p=1_8
