Add Custom Headers to Each Page in Org Chart
Hello,
I am creating an org chart that has about 45 pages (tabs at the bottom of the screen). I have created a custom template that will apply to each of these pages. In addition to my template header I would like to add a header that contains the department name on each page (therefore, 45 different headers, one for each page). I am creating my org chart using a data file loaded in throught the wizard. I have a column in my data file that contains the department name. I'm not very proficient in VBA, but I'm thinking this might be able to be done through some sort of code (although I'm open to any options). Can anyone give me some sample code that I could use to do this or can anyone at least point me to a resource that can help? Thanks! Becky N. |

Headers and Footers are not the normal way to do this. In fact, H&Fs are quite limited. The Visio way is to create a background page and attach it to each foreground page. On the background page add the information you would like to appear on each page. On the background page, you can reference the page name. This will actually be the name of the foreground page that the background page is attached to. H&Fs were added around version 3 of Visio to handle the specific problem of when a Visio page actually prints on multiple physical pages. The H&Fs were added so that the individual physical pages could be labeled and numbered. When there is a one to one relationship between Visio page and physical page, then there is no need for H&Fs. With a little creativity, it is possible to create a background page that can print on several physical pages. John... Visio MVP |
