Syntax
expression.Tag

Return value
String
Remarks
Microsoft Visio makes no use of the Tag property, nor does its value appear anywhere in the user interface. The Tag property is intended to be used by developers to store additional information about a graphic item or a data graphic.
For example, you can assign a Tag property value to a particular graphic item as an identifier. Then, by writing a procedure that iterates through the GraphicItems collection and looks for a graphic item that has that specific Tag value, you can find the graphic item.
Note
Before you can set any property of a graphic item, you must use the Master.Open method to open a copy of the data graphic master that contains the graphic item for editing. When you are finished setting properties, use the Master.Close method to commit changes.
