are arrows that connect frames and nodes, directing the program to the

next step. A Link pointing

to

a frame or node shows how it is accessed. A Link

pointing

away from

a frame or node shows where the program goes next.

To create a Link, complete the following steps:

1. Select

Create > Link

from the menubar or press the

Link

button from

the

Program Nodes

toolbar.

2. Position your cursor (the Link) on the initiating node, click and hold

down the left mouse button, and drag your cursor (the Link) on to
the

Next Node

. Release the Link. The Link is drawn using the middle

of each object as an axis, regardless of the exact position of the pointer.
