Visio Importer and MS free exporter

[skiwi]

When installing the Visio MDG importer, there is a note that a free exported from MS is required.



Does anyone have a link for this, and is it required for Office 2007, 20010, or 2013?

The XMI add-in was a separate download for Visio versions 2002 and 2003.

I believe it was bundled in Visio 2007 SP2.  Not sure for Visio 2010, etc.

I can speak for Visio 2010: it doesn't need a separate download.

thankyou

I see now with a little more research

Visio 2007 Service Pack 2 XMI export
and
How do I import or export XMI files in Visio 2010 (UML?)

and for Visio 2003 users Visio® 2003 UML To XMI Export

Perhaps this message could be updated, and a hyperlink included.
I presume this means that the Visio importer will work OOTB with Visio 2007 etc
