The Visio global object is automatically available to Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) code that is part of the VBA project of a Visio document. The Visio global object is not available to code in other contexts.

Version added

4.5

Remarks

Members of the global object can be accessed without qualification. For example, to access the ActivePage member of the global object:

Set pageObj = ActivePage

The preceding syntax is different from the syntax you would use for accessing members of non-global objects. For example:

Set pageObj = AppObj.ActivePage

Note The VBA project of every Visio document also has a class module called ThisDocument. When referenced from code in the VBA project, the ThisDocument module returns a reference to the project's Document object.
