Excel VBA to Open Visio template Search and replace string

Hi I want to open a Visio document template from within my Excel spreadsheet and search and replace set values with values from my Excel spreadsheet.

For Example Cell M33 contains the Customer Name and I want to open the file Visio_template.vsd and find and replace the string [Customer] with the value of cell M33.

Code:

---

Dim VisioApp As Object
vfilepath = Application.ActiveWorkbook.Path
Set objv = CreateObject("Visio.Application")
objv.Visible = True

---

For the next bit I did the very same thing as i have working for a Word document...

Code:

---

Set objWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
objWord.Visible = True
Set objDoc = objWord.documents.Open(seedsdd)
Set objSelection = objWord.Selection
Const wdReplaceAll = 2

' Customer Name

objSelection.Find.Text = "[Customer]"
objSelection.Find.Forward = True
objSelection.Find.MatchWholeWord = True
objSelection.Find.Replacement.Text = Worksheets("Calculator").Range("M" & 33).Value
objSelection.Find.Execute , , , , , , , , , , wdReplaceAll

How do I achieve this in a Visio document?

Thanks

Steve

As is often the case through persistence I managed to answer my own question eventually so for anyone ese that stumbles across this post in the future with the same problem here is how i did it...

Code:

---

Dim AppVisio As Object
    Dim oCharacters As Object
    Dim lX As Long
    Dim sChar As String
   
    Set AppVisio = CreateObject("visio.application")
    AppVisio.Visible = True
    Set objdoc = AppVisio.Documents.Open(seedsdd)
   
       
' Find [Customer]
For Each vsoPage In objdoc.Pages
        For Each vsoShape In vsoPage.Shapes
            Set vsoCharacters1 = vsoShape.Characters
            vsoStrng = Worksheets("Calculator").Range("M" & 33).Value
            vsoCharacters1.Text = Replace(vsoCharacters1.Text, "[Customer]", vsoStrng)
        Next
    Next
