Example

This example assumes that the first slide in the active presentation already contains two shapes attached by a connector named "Conn1To2." The code adds a rectangle and a connector to the first slide. The beginning of the new connector will be attached to the same connection site as the beginning of the connector named "Conn1To2," and the end of the new connector will be attached to connection site one on the new rectangle.

Visual Basic for Applications 
Set myDocument = ActivePresentation.Slides(1) With myDocument.Shapes Set r3 = .AddShape(msoShapeRectangle, 450, 190, 200, 100) .AddConnector(msoConnectorCurve, 0, 0, 10, 10) _ .Name = "Conn1To3" With .Item("Conn1To2").ConnectorFormat beginConnSite1 = .BeginConnectionSite Set beginConnShape1 = .BeginConnectedShape End With With .Item("Conn1To3").ConnectorFormat .BeginConnect beginConnShape1, beginConnSite1 .EndConnect r3, 1 End With End With
