Hi everyone,I created a shape in Visio from Excel with VBA.Now, I would like to resize it the same way but it doesn't work. I unsuccessfully tried some expressions. I would appreciate if somebody can help me to find the right way to write it.
Code:
Sub Excel2Visio()    Dim AppVisio As Object    Dim oCharacters As Object    Dim avarObjects As Object            Set AppVisio = CreateObject("visio.application")    AppVisio.Visible = True            AppVisio.Documents.AddEx "", visMSDefault, 0                         'Open Blank Visio Document    AppVisio.Documents.OpenEx "basic_u.vss", visOpenRO + visOpenDocked   'Add Basic Stencil        Set avarObjects = AppVisio.Documents.Item("BASIC_U.VSS").Masters.ItemU("rectangle")        AppVisio.Windows.ItemEx(1).Activate        AppVisio.ActiveWindow.Page.Drop avarObjects, 0, 0                ' modify Format        Set test = AppVisio.ActiveWindow.Page.Shapes.avarObjects.CellsSRC(visXFormWidth).FormulaU = "3" ' <-- this doesn't work !!!!!                Set oCharacters = AppVisio.ActiveWindow.Page.Shapes.ItemFromID(lX).Characters        oCharacters.Begin = 0        oCharacters.End = Len(oCharacters)        sChar = "Test funktioniert"        oCharacters.Text = sChar            Set oCharacters = Nothing    Set AppVisio = Nothing    End Sub
