    Have you used this process in the past?

    The Visio Error log is telling you that it is having a problem with the iGrafix output. That doesn't tell you which program is in error.
    I expect the student to do their homework and find all the errrors I leeve in.


    Please take the time to read the Forum FAQ

    hi SamT, never convert previously as I was using igrafix all the time.
