Learn Visio 2000 for the Advanced User

Rating:
Summary: Contents too basic for an advanced user book
Review: The first part (chapter 1-3) contains basic informations on Visio (belonging to a starter book and not to an advanced title). The next part is about customizing Shape Sheets and contains a useful reference part of custimizing Shapes: The one and only good and useful part of the book (you could get the most information from Visio help, but sometimes a printed version is quite useful). The last part has some informations about linking Visio with a database, but on a top level. As an advanced user, the most information written in the book you'll get from the Visio help or from trying out. The book contains too less boosting tips and tricks - i would expect more from this title.

Using VBA to go a step deeper into Vision isn't mentioned once in the book. In my opinion, this topics belongs to an advanced book - at least some words about the Visio object model.
