Visio2002: Unexpected Field Code When You Embed a Visio Drawing in Microsoft Office (293120)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Visio 2002 Standard
  • Microsoft Visio 2002 Professional

This article was previously published under Q293120

SYMPTOMS

When you embed a Microsoft Visio drawing into a Microsoft Office program, the field code that represents that drawing appears as follows

=EMBED (Visio.drawing.6)

instead of the expected field code:

=EMBED (Visio.drawing.10)

CAUSE

Microsoft Visio uses "=EMBED (Visio.drawing.6)" to identify the embedded object, so that systems that contain both Microsoft Visio 2000 and Microsoft Visio 2002, can edit the object.

MORE INFORMATION

The symptoms described in this article do not cause any problems with embedding objects in Microsoft Office programs.
