Before hearing back from you I tried manually opening the add-on's files
from within Visio [1] and was able to get it to work.  I could make a
simple diagram, check it and get an appropriate pass or fail result.

[1]:  Unfortunately I can't relate the exact sequence of steps I fol-
lowed.

0.2.7 works as well.  Though when I run a check and get a FIFO viola-
tion, if I click on the "show" link Visio crashes ("Microsoft Office
Visio has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for
the inconvenience.")

I was using 0.2.0.  Trying 0.2.7 (BTW, the 0.2.7 files' properties
report a release number of 0.2.4), and setting the template and stencil
paths in Visio, I still get the same error when I try to run it from
Tools -> Add-ons.


BTW, please don't consider these issues as complaints / bug reports.
I'm mainly looking for an MSC drawing tool, and SCStudio doesn't appear
to have the timer support I need anyway.  For now I'll continue using
the "msc.sty" LaTeX macros for my diagrams.

On the other hand, I'd be happy to test things if you wish.

Thanks, Tom
