	Hi there, i was wondering if there is a way to build te graph programmatically (I believe there is) and most important 'read' the graph in a way that can be received programmatically (not saving to a file).

	Hi, You can build a graph using FlowChart methods such as CreateBox, CreateTable and CreateArrow. They are equivalent to calling Add(new Box/Table/Arrow()). Use the Boxes, Tables and Arrows collections to read/access the diagram contents. I hope that helps, Stoyan

	Yes that helped me, actually i am working on it now and must say the package seems promising. But it wondered if there is an build in way to validate a flowgraph, like no floating Boxs or where a Decision has only 1 arrow out etc etc. tnx in advange.

	There's no built-in validation logic provided. You can implement what you mention by iterating all boxes and checking the number of their links. The links of a box can be accessed through the OutgoingArrows and IncomingArrows properties of the Box class. Stoyan
