Shape Selection Dynamically

[jignesh142]

i want to make custom flowchart software in the excel and i succeed to make shapes and arrows etc with VBA

now the problem comes when i want to add the elbow arrow between the two shapes which are not aligned.
i can do this with the Activesheets.shapes.addconnector(msoconnectorebow,x1,y1,x2,y2).select

the main thing here is that i don't want to specify the value of x1.y1.x2.y2 in the function but i want to select the two shapes and to draw the arrow dynamically

can anybody help me to activate this command only with vba?

You can use the Left, Top, Width and Height of the selected Shapes.
Use an Offset for the Elbow Top and Left from these figures.
I used this to give me all the coordinates for a bunch of lines. (Type 9)

[VBA]Sub Get_Coords_A()
Dim ln As Shape
For Each ln In ActiveSheet.Shapes
If ln.Type = 9 Then
With Cells(Rows.Count, "P").End(xlUp)(2)
.Value = ln.Left
.Offset(, 1).Value = ln.Top
.Offset(, 2).Value = ln.Width
.Offset(, 3).Value = ln.Height
End With
End If
Next ln
End Sub[/VBA]

I just want to activate the elbow arrow connector command with vba only

if i activate only this command then it will give me the on screen selection of the shapes to make arrow between them, after words i can change the property of this arrow by vba code

Rest of the matter will be taken care by my code
