I have successfully added the Visio mime type and associated icons. Everything works correctly. Double clicking the file loads Visio. So, how do I get the "Open in Visio" item on the context menu, like word or excel? thanks John

Hi John, You'll need to tweak the ViewCollection.js file and the DefautlMenu file to include this. The first holds the JS to achieve this. The second (found under portals/[id]/DMX/Menu) is an XSL file responsible for rendering the menu. You should easily find where Word is done so you can tweak it to do this. Note: with the menu create a separate file in the same place and select it as the menu for your DMX instance (Module Settings) as the default one may get overwritten again during an update (or when you hit reset menus).

About Bring2mind

Bring2mind is the company of Peter Donker, a DotNetNuke enthusiast who has been involved with the platform from the very beginning. At the same time as the market for modules emerged, he realized there was no good document management solution for the platform yet and he set about creating this. In part he based the module on his experience with other document management systems he used while working as a researcher. His module, Document Exchange, was an instant success and has since become the premier document management solution for DotNetNuke. In 2004 he created Bring2mind as a vehicle for the module and is one of the few successful businesses solely based on a DotNetNuke product.
