I have been asked to create an evacuation route map that is editable in Microsoft Visio. Is there a way to export feature classes so they can be read and edited in Microsoft Visio?

I have been asked to create an evacuation map that can be edited with Microsoft Visio. Does anyone know if feature classes can be exported in a format that can be read and edited in Microsoft Visio?

Carolyn Scholl, this sounds like a cool feature but I cannot find where this happens. It looks like there was some compatibility before ArcGIS 10. But from looking at these threads, it looks like this hasn't happened:

Thanks so much. Super helpful!

So I think the way to resolve this is to expert feature classes to cad and they can be converted to Visio files.
