There is a great video on Channel 9 about Access Web Apps, and how to link to them on the desktop ( see https://channel9.msdn.com/events/MVP-Virtual-Conference/MVP-Virtual-Conference-Americas-2015/CONS2-Using-Access-and-SharePoint-for-Travel-Expenses-and-Pulling-up-Maps). However, they never mentioned linking to Visio, so I thought I would correct that omission. I had previously tried to use Link Data to Shapes with an Access Web database, but failed, however watching this video encouraged me to try again!

The file can be downloaded from http://1drv.ms/1FDAZgI .
