.NET

[#1]

I'm testing code from Kean:

http://through-the-interface.typepad.com/through_the_interface/2007/01/creating_an_aut.html

Everything is ok, it works great.

But I have one problem. I would like to have closed-filled arrow with my MLeader, but when I send stringname = "" or "." I'm getting error about no found key.

Anyone has got some clue for me? I googled I found nothing.

Here is working example tested on A2010
