Can you be a bit more specific?

What do you mean by Import a Visio? Import it into what?

that would be nice

 Most of my WF start out being a visio for making it easy to share . it would be nice if you could just import a visio file into the project

Yes, that's what customer and I need

many users have many WF on visio file(diagram) already, it will be wondful that WF 7 can directly import the visio not rebuilt them again in WF 7.

Don't think it cab be done...

The formats are incompatible, you can't even cut and paste the images from visio into the documentation section.

About the only thing you can do is convert the doc to either a PDF or a jpeg/png and add that as a resource to the project. If you make it a JPEG/PNG you can actually drag the PIC on to your project in the editor and refer to it as needed. I've done this with some of the visio docs my internal customers have given me.

Not the best solution, but really the only way to "import" them.
