This one's a little more complex.

My employer uses SharePoint...poorly. There's hardly any structure to it
and it wasn't really what they needed years ago.

I created a Visio workbook that was designed to hold all of the latest
information from SharePoint so that upper-management could cart this around
with them to see information about a project during off-hours (after COB,
weekends, on a plane, etc.). It was supposed to be a local resource only.
The opening tab (worksheet) looks like a web page (buttons, links, etc.).

My employer now wants to use my Visio workbook as the GUI for SharePoint.
So, for example, if I have a "Gantt Chart" button on my workbook, the bosses
want to click it and have the actual Gantt Chart open up from the SharePoint
site.

I can link to the SharePoint folder that contains the Gantt Chart without a
problem, but beyond that...

Is this doable? Are they dreaming?
