In the Microsoft Visio object model, the most fundamental object you work with is the Shape object. To navigate to the Shape objects, you commonly work with the Document and Page objects that precede them in the object hierarchy.
This chapter describes techniques for working with Document, Page, and Shape objects—getting and setting their properties, and invoking their methods. You can apply many of these techniques when working with other Visio objects in the object model.
For details about these objects or any objects, properties, methods, and events in the Visio object model, see the Microsoft Visio Developer Reference (on the Help menu, click Developer Reference). For a summary list of Visio objects, properties, methods, and events, see Appendix A, Properties, Methods, and Events by Object.
