Apparently, but I don't recall what I intended to say (it's a bitch getting 
old) -- I don't think it would have been very relevant -- the key point is I 
don't use dia that much, and I didn't clearly understand your complaint.

If the problem is that you cannot find files with a vsdx extension when you use 
the open file dialog, there is an option to view all files which would let you 
look for a file with any extension (including vsdx).

If the problem is that you know about that option but you (or your users / 
clients) find it inconvenient, I can't help you.
