Custom Visio property to enable selection by macro

$

Hi,

I have a fairly complex system architecture diagram, with lots of systems joined by different types of connector.

I'd like to be able to use the same diagram to support various functions - i.e. architecture or service based teams. The default version has lots of text annotating the connectors. I'd like to be able to set up a macro to hide that text for certain end audience requirements. I can do this by simple grouping of the connectors, and then setting the text to 100% transparent, and the text-fill similarly. What I'd rather do, as opposed to grouping, is to be able to refer to every object with a particular attribute, so that I can then make amendments to the diagram easier, without needing to ungroup and regroup things.

Is this possible? I am using Visio 2010 Standard. I am fine with using VBA to accomplish this - though my simple grouping macro was a straightforward 'record macro' operation.

Thanks

John


Cheers, John
