Unlike a Visio.Shape object, the Visio.Document object does not have a ShapeSheet. Instead, it has a DocumentSheet property, whose cells represent properties of the document.

To reference the cells in a Visio.Document object, the DocumentSheet property must be assigned to a Shape object. Public Sub DemoDocumentSheet

Dim docSheetShape As Visio.Shape Set docSheetShape = ActiveDocument.DocumentSheet ' Change the value of the document's OutputFormat cell. ' Valid values are: ' 0  Printing ' 1  PowerPoint slide show ' 2  HTML or GIF output

docSheetShape.Cells(&quot;OutputFormat&quot;) = 2

End Sub To examine the cells in the DocumentSheet in Microsoft Visio, follow these steps:
 * 1) On the View menu, point to Window, and then click Drawing Explorer.
 * 2) In the Drawing Explorer, right-click on the drawing's name, and then click Show ShapeSheet.
