Re: What version is Visio for VS 2003 Enterprise Architect?

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

If both versions are the same, there should be no problem. When you look at
the about box within Visio it should show both Visio 2002 and (10.xxxx)

As far as file formats are concerned there is no difference between 10.0.525
and 10.0.2705. Both are Visio 2002.

In your original message you mentioned
>Now, we cannot open charts created by others in the 10.0.525.
Is it possible that the "others' use Visio 2003 (11.xxxx)?
