I sequenced Visio 2003 a while ago and nothing to it really.
Followed the MS / Softricity recipe from: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/931813/en-us
However, I did start to get user reports that it wouldn’t integrate with Word (Office basic is installed locally on our clients).
Solving the problem with copy-n-paste from Word to Visio and vice versa was pretty easy, simple google and find this:
http://appvirtguru.com/viewtopic.php?p=7499
However, the users wanted more and the integration with word had to be complete.
Since I thought it would simply take registry keys I d/l SFT-Explorer and started looking through the package and use regmon to see what happend when Word tried to reach Visio.
After a few days of mapping, I had found two registry entries that I thought would do the trick. Of course it didn’t work and I kept extracting more and more.
Finally I had four .reg-files I had edited and still no solution. However, SFT-explorer only extracted the Default value as an @ value and when inserted into the locally registry – the default key had no value (but the @ did).
Correcting this mistake made it all work like a charm.
So here they come, my registry keys:
Remember though, you have to correct to your package name and SG-client path.
You should be able to change the corresponding places my settings when I tell you this:
