FromSheet of Connector

[Saritha]

Hi,
am finding problem when am trying to get the shape from which the
connection originates. Its giving me the connector itself when am using
FromSheet Property.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Saritha.

This is actually correct behavior. The Visio object model has no concept of
a "connection". The connector is itself a shape which, in Visio terminology,
is "glued" to the other shape(s).

To accomplish what you want you need to do the following:
1. Obtain the connector shape from the FromSheet property of a shape.
2. Examine the ToSheet property of the connector shape to get the shape at
the other end of the connector. (remember that the ToSheet collection will
also contain the original shape from which you started as well as the shape
at the other end).

Hope this helps.

Download the Visio SDK and look at the Code Library...
