Having problem in putting rdp link in visio

Asked By John Griesham 30 points N/A Posted on - 01/31/2013

I created multiple .rdp files using PowerShell but I'm having a problem in putting rdp link in visio.  Can I use a Remote Desktop for administration instead of web-based admin consoles?

Having problem in putting rdp link in visio

Hello,

There are two solutions for this problem: Create a shortcut to the RDP client and store it somewhere safe, then select your shape menu go to Insert then Hyperlink. Click the Address browse button and select local file. Browse to your shortcut.  The second solution is adding this sentence: “CALLTHIS("ThisDocument.TermServeToTarget",,"127.0.0.1")”  to "EventDblClick" in the shape sheet to replace the IP address.  After this, go to Tools then select References and add "Windows Script Host Object Model" in the VBA editor. You also need to add a macro to the document and this requires a code.  I have an attachment for the code:"Rdp.txt" file.

I hope this is useful.
