\viewkind4\uc1\pard\f0\fs26 By design, Visio wants to own the extensions when it is installed. Each time the application launches, it will self repair to ensure it owns them.
\par You can work around this by turning off the automatic self-repair. However, this would prevent Visio from automatically repairing itself for any reason, and should only be used with that understanding.
\par
\par To manually disable Visio's File association Repair function :
\par [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Office\\11.0\\Visio\\Application]
\par ; Visio default = 0xBDEF
\par ; Clear bit 5 (AND 0xFFDF) to disable Visio's file association repair.
\par "RegistrationFlags"="0xBDCF"
\par
\par Note that this disables only the auto-repair, users can still repair both from within the application and from the Control Panel.

\par I would leave the registry entry alone and add the viewer as as SendTo

Re: Using Visio 2007 Viewer when Visio 2007 application is install
Thanks for the info.
This will require to use AD policies to make sure that every user who have
visio will have this configuration... This is maybe not the best solution but
if I do not have the choice...
I think it is someting that should be available to specify that the file
should be launch with the viewer (if available) instead of the application.
(Maybe a parameter at the end of the filename). It would be a nice feature.
We want to integrate visio native file into SharePoint pages with a webpart
(for process documentation with visual process workflow on the side). We want
to launch the activeX viewer only in this situation. If the end user only
have the viewer, everything is ok but if you have the full apps, then it will
not show the drawing into the browser.
I want to use the native file, because I don't want to save a copy in HTML
or PDF.

\viewkind4\uc1\pard\f0\fs26 I appreciate the feedback, and will share as a wish for future versions.
\par
\par By the way - in terms of SharePoint pages, the Visio team discussed some upcoming plans at the Visio Conference earlier this year. If you are interested, there are recordings available at the VisioToolbox site for the conference here : http://www.visiotoolbox.com/visioconference2008/start.htm
\par
\par In particular, check out the Visio Future Investments session under the General Sessions : http://www.visiotoolbox.com/visioconference2008/GeneralSessions/start.htm
