    Because of a unique licensing and work logistics situation, I'd like to know if anyone has ever tried to convert between StarUML and Visio. Is there some universal "UML" format that can be understood by both products? My knowledge of both products is slim and have not found any discussion online about this.

      I have not. I don't know if either product supports XMI, I will leave that investigation to you.

          I have researched the compatibility between starUML and Visio. Apparently, the standard XML for describing UML, called XMI, can be read and exported by both Visio and starUML. StarUML can import and export XMI http://staruml.sourceforge.net/en/about-2.php Visio can export to it (I assume it can read it, too) http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa140339.aspx I will be testing this out, probably.
