Linking to shapes

[dirk.devos]

Hi,

I have two comma delimited input text files that I want to use to
create a baisc flowchart. The first file contains a process ID and a
process name. The second file contains a from process ID and a to
process ID. I have my code to read the two files and drop new shapes
onto the new diagram. I am not able to give the shapes a IN so that I
can link the two shapes using the data from the second text file. My
question is how do I assign an ID to a shape and then how do I select
and join the two shapes.

Thanks,
Dirk

I'd start by examining the flowchart example in the visio sdk which is
available on msdn.

there's also an example at

I am not allowed to install the SDK at work. Would it be possible for
someone to post the code here for me.

Thanks,
Dirk

Maybee I am missing something but the link takes me to "Chapter 22,
Customizing the Visio User Interface". Could be that I can not see the
complete link when looking at the message using IE.

Thanks,
