RE: Hyperlink - Visio

Hi Helena

Thank you for your question, and apologies for the delay in response.

You can link to another file from Visio by selecting the shape you want to attach the hyperlink to, then going to Insert/Hyperlink or use Ctrl + K.

Then use the Browse button beside Address, and select Local file. In the Save as type box, select Office Files, navigate to and select the file you wish to hyperlink to and click Open, and then click OK.

I hope this helps.
Amanda
