Advanced VBA Source

This book is a very good book for advanced VBA development with Visio. This book is not for the faint at heart. If you are looking to do serious development using Visio then this is one of the books that you need. I admit that there are some typos in this book, but this doesn't detract from the value and advanced concepts that this book teaches. You are not going to be able to find very many books that have this depth. You need to be a senior level developer to appreciate the content of this book. I recommend this book for serious VBA Visio Automation.

Excellent choice

David Edson expects the user to be fluent with the elementary Visio features and VBA. The book builds upon this premise and imparts a comprehensive and incremental teaching of Visio. While the examples and illustrations are chosen well, the accompanying CD was missing a few examples, and came up blank. Overall, I strongly recommend this book to help for automation using Visio.

A man who knows his Visio

I really appreciate people who understand their subject matter this well. Mr. Edson has completed a top quality reference book for Visio development. It is obvious how well he understands Visio. I work for a company that develops software based in the Visio architecture. My CEO has decided to buy a copy of Mr. Edson's book for all of the devlopment personnel in our company. His writing is clear and concise. The exercises are very well compiled. I would love to see a book from Mr. Edson going deeper into the VBA for Visio Development environment the next time around. Those who have a good familiarity with Visio will reap great rewards from this book. Not for a Visio beginner, but all Visio professionals should have this as part of their Visio library. Can't wait for his next book.

Great resource for Visio developers

WOW... Don't start your Visio development without reading this book first. Easy and entertaining to read, well laid out and very informative. I wish I had had this book a couple of years ago; it would have saved me hundreds of hours of development time. A must read for any serious Visio developer.
