I am trying to make a reference in a user defined ODBC cell that will reference a database located on the same root drive as the visio drawing. There is a way to do it because visio sample database does it, but I am not sure how. The goal is top be able to put both a database and a visio drawing on a cd and have the shapes in the visio drawing refresh off of the database on open, whether it is on a D: drive or C: drive ect.. I figure it will have something to do with either the ODBCDatasource or the ODBCQualifier.
I would appreciate any help I can get
Thanks
