Custom connection sites on Shape objects

Hi,
I've asked this question in the Eng-Tips forum, and someone recommended trying this forum, so here goes...

I'm trying to generate a Shape object with custom connection sites (which can attach to a Connector object). I want to be able to place as many connection sites as I please, and place them where I want them. In addition, I need to be able to add text to the Shape. I've tried using the FreeFormBuilder, which will place connection sites at the vertices of the FreeForm object I define, but the FreeForm object apparently doesn't contain a TextFrame property. If I could get a rectangle with text and twelve (instead of four) evenly spaced connection sites, that would be enough for now.
Can anyone do this?
Thanks

P.S. By the way, I'm doing this in VBA (6.3) for Excel 2000
