Using: Visio 2003 on XP SP2 Hello All, When I attach a Custom Callout to a shape that has custom proproties, the Configure Callout dialogue often comes up with no custom properties listed. I have confirmed that the attached shape does indeed have custom properties. The most frustatring thing is that sometime it works and sometimes it doesn't. It seems I need a "refresh" option or something. Can anyone help or has someone else had this experience. Thanks in advance for the support.

It seems to go wrong when the Custom Callout's control is attached to the shape's central connection point. If the control is dropped outside of the shape and then re-dropped within the shape but not near a connection point then it seems ok. -- Regards, Paul Herber, Sandrila Ltd http://www.electronics-packages.sandrila.co.uk/
