Hi all,

I want to add an organization chart created by Visio, to a WSS site.
What is the best way to achieve that?
I want the chart to be interactive: each item(Department) i click will bring
to its site.
thanks a lot,
Assaf

The problem is that all you are doing by adding the chart to WSS is adding
the file to a WSS document library.

In order for the chart to work as a Visio chart should you will need to open
it in Visio.

You should check whether opening in Visio in the browser is enough for what
you want and if not you should follow the standard procedure for opening it
in a copy of Visio outside the browser.

Hi Mike and thanks for the response.
I like to show the chart in the home page of the site.
I though of turning the visio file to an html one and then use the Web page
part as viewer. I thought there is a visio viewer for WSS. is there one?

u need to save it as a webpage using html and vrml.
Embed the webpage in a wss site and set the properties...if you have time
you can enhance on this using the visio api connrting to the ad profile.

Lp
within visio you can set the properties of each user to get the user info
from a data source....in this case your data source would be the users sps
profile...so as the profile changes so does visio....try googling visio data
connection
