Display one .jpg image file in many Visio Disagrams

I support an employer who uses roughly 500 Visio Diagrams with 2 to 5 pages each which each have identical copyright information in a text box on every page. This copyright information changes from year to year and can be a hassle to update in so many documents.

I'd like to replace the text boxes which currently have this information with a link to a single image which could be delivered in the same folder we use to send the .vsd files. My thought is that replacing one image year to year would be quicker in the long run.

I've been looking for a way to do this without success. Has anyone ever done somthing similar to this?

Hi,

As far as I know, we can use "Find/Replace" feature to update the identical copyright information with one Visio Diagram easily. If we need to complete large-batch tasks, Visio cannot use vba code to find and replace the text. Thus, I agree with you, we may find the whole text box and replace to an image, and it still needs some codes. I'm not familiar with coding, I recommend you post the question to Office DEV forum, it will help you better.
