Title: Find specific tag and Replace the tag values within the Class Properties
Post by: tsar on August 14, 2008, 12:53:50 AM
Hello,

I'm looking for a tool or some vba code to do a find a specific tag and replace a tag value in the Class Properties.  I have a vsd that contains hundreds classes. The class attribute contains a specific tag and a value and I need to replace the value of the tag.  I'm Using Visio 2003.

Thanks in advance!

Could be me but, please explain what exactly you mean with "tag values" and "class properies". neither terms ring a bell to me, not in Visio anyway.

Are you trying to edit custom properties? Think theres something like that somewhere on the forum...

The following article (http://www.larserikmiedema.nl/blog/2008/06/11/mass-changing-of-your-stencils-masters/) goes true all the masters in a document looking for certain custom properties and changes them where needed. You could addapt this to work with shapes on a page pretty easy.
