Insert Image as a shape in Visio - VBA -


i want able import image shape in visio using vba. i've tried insert image using following, doesn't work... myshape.import(imagepath)

however, mypage.import(imagepath) works fine , places image in center of page, have no way of manipulating shape. i've tried searching web, can't seem find way using vba.

just expanding on @tim , @mike comments here's quick snippet wraps import part function

sub tryaddimage() dim vpag visio.page set vpag = activepage dim shpimg visio.shape  set shpimg = addimageshape(vpag, "c:\myimage.jpg")  if not shpimg nothing     'do new shape     shpimg.cellsu("width").formulau = "=height*0.5" end if end sub   private function addimageshape(byref vpag visio.page, filename string) visio.shape dim shpnew visio.shape if not vpag nothing     dim undoscopeid1 long     undoscopeid1 = application.beginundoscope("insert image shape")      on error resume next:     set shpnew = vpag.import(filename)      if not shpnew nothing         application.endundoscope undoscopeid1, true     else         application.endundoscope undoscopeid1, false     end if end if set addimageshape = shpnew end function 

basically, function tries return shape import method. if method creates error, either non-existent path or appropriate image filter not being installed, function returns 'nothing', , can test in calling code.
