Discussion:
MS Outlook calendar images appear in Visio shapes

I am using a J2EE product called PegaRULES Process Commander. This is a
J2EE BPM/BRE toolkit, and Visio is the flow editor. So developers connect
to a web container (e.g., Tomcat or Websphere) via HTTP and then edit work
flows using Visio. The toolkit supplies the stencil, and the shapes tie
back to VBA components that implement Java classes.

Here's my issue: For some reason one workstation tends to introduce MS
Outlook calendar icon images in the Visio shapes. But it only does this in
one server instance. In other words, if I connect to http://server_a, I get
the bad shapes, but when I connect to http://server_b I do not. But it only
happens to me. If someone else reviews the flow I've edited, they see the
bad shapes too, but they cannot reproduce the shapes themselves.

Any ideas? We have, of course, cleaned
the machine of viruses...

If Pega is providing the stencils then I would contact them for a
solution. Has the stencil been edited? If you can find where the
stencils are stored on server_a and server_b, compare them (file dates
and size initially).
