Group shapes that automatically resize when one member is changed

[HowardB]

Hi,

I am a complete noob to visio vba but not to vba in general, I was wondering whether someone could help me out. I have a created a shape based on the swimlane shape in the cross functional flowchart. This shape has a main single outer swimlane band with three smaller swimlanes nested all in a single row in front of it. What I want to happen is that if I change the height dimension of any of the inner three swimlanes the other swimlanes automatically resize and the overall size of the shape increases dynamically in response. This is similar to the way the single swimlanes in the standard cross functional flowchart work but I have no idea how to achieve this. Can anyone help? I am familiar with the shapesheet in Visio 2003 and how to edit it,

Thanks in advance,

HowardB
