Page.ReviewerID Property

  • Article
Visio Automation Reference

Gets the reviewer ID associated with the markup overlay. Read-only.

Version Information
 Version Added:  Visio 2003

Syntax

expression.ReviewerID

expression   A variable that represents a Page object.

Return Value
Long

Remarks

The ReviewerID property is valid only for markup overlays. To determine if a page is a markup overlay, check to see whether Page.Type = visTypeMarkup (3). If you attempt to get the ReviewerID value for foreground pages and for background pages that are not markup overlays, Microsoft Office Visio returns an error.

The reviewer ID returned by the ReviewerID property corresponds to one of the rows in the Reviewer section of the document's ShapeSheet. The ShapeSheet cell that contains the reviewer ID is hidden in the document ShapeSheet user interface, but you can determine the user name and initials associated with each reviewer ID by using the Document.DocumentSheet.CellsSRC property of the page. See the example that follows.

To view a document's ShapeSheet, on the View menu, click Drawing Explorer Window, right-click the document's name, and then click Show ShapeSheet.

Example

This Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macro uses the ReviewerID property to get the ID of the reviewer associated with a markup overlay and then prints the reviewer's name in the Immediate window. It first determines if the active page is a markup overlay, and if so, gets the reviewer ID. Before running this macro, make sure there is an active drawing page in the Visio drawing window.

Visual Basic for Applications 
  Public Sub ReviewerID_Example()
    Dim vsoPage As Visio.Page
    Dim intCounter As Integer

Set vsoPage = ActivePage    

If vsoPage.Type = visTypeMarkup Then
            
    For intCounter = 0 To vsoPage.Document.DocumentSheet.RowCount(visSectionReviewer) - 1
    
        If vsoPage.ReviewerID  = vsoPage.Document.DocumentSheet.CellsSRC(visSectionReviewer, visRowReviewer + intCounter, visReviewerReviewerID).ResultStr(0) Then
        
            Debug.Print "Reviewer name is: "; vsoPage.Document.DocumentSheet.CellsSRC(visSectionReviewer, visRowReviewer + intCounter, visReviewerName).ResultStr(0)
     
        End If            
        
     Next intCounter
     
Else

    Debug.Print "Active page is not a markup overlay."
    
End If



End Sub
