Custom shapes for Org Chart wizard

[jdllc]

I am using the Org Chart Wizard command-line utility in a vb.net 2008 app. I
would like to create a new shape in the stencil so that each org-chart item
has a header and a body, each formattable individually. How do I get the data
that normally appears in a single text area to display in separate fields?

Also, is it possible to create an entirely new shape (not edit an existing
one) to use as the display shape?

The challange remains, can you create function for an undocumented api?
(only partly facetious)

I wonder whether they'd pay me or sue me if I documented it for them ...

IMHO it is probably easier to write your own. A post by another person
mentioned that David Parker (who wrote one of the current favorite books on
visio) is working on a a datamining example of how to do it. I personally
believe that is the easier scenario.

My Visio conference presentation contains code for creating Org Charts
without the Org Chart Wizard....
