</table><h2>Element information</h2><p><b class="bterm">Parent elements</b></p><p><a href="vixmlelemConnects.htm" id="HV01085356" lcid=""><b class="bterm">Connects</b></a></p><p><b class="bterm">Child elements</b></p><p>None</p><h2>Remarks</h2><p>
<p><b class="bterm">Connect</b> elements are always emitted for a DatadiagramML file. However, the <b class="bterm">Connect</b> elements in a trusted DatadiagramML file are ignored when the file is opened by Microsoft Office Visio.</p>
<p>In untrusted XML files, when Visio opens the file, it uses the <b class="bterm">Connect</b> elements to set glue formulas for shapes, similar to the <b class="bterm">GlueTo</b> method in Automation. However, geometry will not be updated, so connectors may need to be manually rerouted.</p>
<p>For more information on trusted DatadiagramML files, see <a href="vixmlconXMLOverview.htm" id="HV83150817" lcid=" ">A DatadiagramML overview</a>.</p>
<h2>Example</h2>
<pre><code><Connects>
<Connect FromSheet="3" FromCell="BeginX" FromPart="9" ToSheet="1" ToCell="Connections.X4" ToPart="103" />
