In visio 2003 I am trying to pick up custom properties from a "dimensions"
object which is updated via VBA. The diagram/shape then reflects these
dimensions as measurements.
My question is. Is there a better way of referencing shapes other than by
the Sheet.<n> nomenclature? I have had some success in naming shapes using
the "Format/Special" dialogue, but then can't always seem to refer to the
shape by its name. I'm sure its to do with grouping and any "name references"
eg "Sheet.cShapeName!Prop.myProperty" I put into my coding just seem to set
themselves back to the standard naming by number. I must say that I am
grouping/ungrouping objects quite a lot.
Once I start to drive the application from programming code (VFP in my
case) I want to refer to shapes by name not by number. Hope this makes sense.
