I'm trying to import an Active Dirctory tree created in Visio 2000 - Enterprise with SR1.

When I try to import I get the following error:
Add error on line 2: Invalid Syntax
`The parameter is incorrect.'

I even tried bringing my existing AD tree into Visio, exporting it out without any changes, and then importing that back and it also failed.

Is there a problem with Visio's AD export? Or has anyone been able to get this to work?

Running Visio 2000 Enterprise (Not SR1) the only "import" I see is directly from an AD server.

I created the AD layout in Visio and exported it to an LDF file. Using Microsoft's utility to import LDF files is were the problem occurs.

Greetings,

Cut and paste this link (REMOVE SPACES if they snuck in while pasting the URL).

It's a Microsoft Press tutorial article on Importing Existing Directory Structures.

It's quite extensive, and describes the whole import/export process quite fully.

Good luck,

Maxwell
