Microsoft Visio 2007 Tips

Visio 2007 Service Pack 2 in Crossover 8.0.0

Just to share with you that I have successfully installed SP2 for Visio 2007 professional in Crossover 8 under Fedora11.
I have used the same trick as for Visio 2003 (SP3 for Visio 2003)http://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/browse/name/?app_id=229;tips=1

-Create new empty XP bottle with Crossover Office 8
-Install Visio 2007 according to "Tips & Trick" (Installation prerequisiteshttp://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/browse/name/?app_id=2840;tips=1
-Copy all CAB's from Visio CD to your bottles drive_c/windows/Installers/
On Linux use find to locate them: find /media/OFFICE12 -name *.cab -exec cp -v {} ~/.cxoffice/*/drive_c/windows/Installer/ \;
On a MAC Open Manage Bottles, Choose your Visio 2007 Bottle and on the Advanced Tab choose Open C: in Finder. Then in a new Finder window open your Visio Media and search for *.cab, Now just drag and drop the found files to the drive_c/windows/Installers/ folder.

-Install SP1 and then SP2 downloaded from Microsoft web page

When you start Visio you will get message "For best performance, you need to download and install a component for Microsoft".
To get rid of this message you have to install XMLLite for Windows XP (KB915865) from Microsoft, but this file is still only available for download on a Genuine Windows Install. "This download is available to customers running genuine Microsoft Windows." So get it however you can.
XMLLite for Windows XP (KB915865): http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=D7B5DC81-AD14-4DE2-8AD5-8C4A9AAB5992

Any Service Pack for Microsoft products (Office, Visio) would only work for genuine products.
