there is no project viewer.  Content redirection will do this if you are using the pnagent.

Hi Jim

Will use the viewer for Visio.  I also have the same issue with MS Project.  I couldn't find a MS Viewer for Project.  Do you know if one exists?

Thanks

Why not just install the Visio viewer on the other servers? Or do they need to modify the files? If you instruct users to open visio first then it should also open the clicked on file I believe.

The viewer is at

http://www.microsoft.com/DOWNLOADS/details.aspx?familyid=D88E4542-B174-4198-AE31-6884E9EDD524&displaylang=en

 

You may have to play around with content redirection a bit.

Hi

Is there a way to associate an extension (ie VSD) to an application on another server?  We have installed Visio on 1 Citrix server only so we can control who can access it via Published Applications.  The issue I have is some users try to launch Visio by double clicking a Visio file in Windows Explorer.  Windows Explorer cant associate the file to anything as Visio is not installed on the Citrix Servers (except one).  Is there a way for the file to open on the Citrix server that has Visio installed?

IM hoping I don't have to install Visio on all Citrix servers to get around this issue

Thanks
Angela
