Obtain data from connected shapes

P

PDS01

I'm wondering if anyone has ever found a way to pick up data from one shape
when connecting it to another shape? Specifically, I would like to use a
connector (arrow) between two shapes and --- at the time of connection --
obtain the descriptive text of the shape I have attached the connector to.
My current solution is to use custom properties on the connector with the
"Ask on drop" box checked. But if I could populate the custom properties
automatically that would save some work. I am using Visio 2003 Pro SP2.
Thanks in advance for any guidance.
