Viewing and Editing VBA Code Associated with an
OpenLNS CT Network Drawing
Each OpenLNS CT drawing has VBA code associated with it that implements its OpenLNS CT
functionality. Do not edit this code, as this can cause loss of OpenLNS CT functionality. However,
you can add your own VBA code to the drawing (to create HMIs with the Data Point SmartShape, for
example). To avoid unintentional changes to the OpenLNS CT VBA code and protect the OpenLNS
CT digital signature, the VBA code in the OpenLNS CT templates and drawings is password
protected. See Working with Digital Signatures in Chapter 3, Getting Started, for information on the
consequences on modifying VBA code.
To view and edit the VBA code associated with an OpenLNS CT drawing, follow these steps:
1. Enable the Visio Developer tab. To do this, click File and then click Options. In the Visio
Options dialog, click the Customize Ribbon section. On the right-hand side, enable the
Developer check box, and then click OK.
2. Click the Developer tab, and then click Visual Basic. The Visual Basic development
environment opens. You must have Visual Basic installed on your computer to view and edit
VBA code.
3. On the left pane of the Visual Basic window, open the network project. You will be prompted for
a password.
4. Enter enumerate in the Password box.
5. View and edit the Visual Basic code associated with the OpenLNS CT drawing.
