Good afternoon. I need help dropping a stencil on a Visio drawing. The drawing contains 500 cell tower sites. Sites are all over the place on the drawing. Everything I have seen describes how to drop a shape at specific coordinates. I need to drop my stencil by the sites. Another issue I am having is finding data on how to drop by information from a specific column. Everything I have seen is by row.  I am able to successfully connect to SharePoint through VBA and import the data into Visio. Each cell site has an ID printed on the drawing and the data from SharePoint also has a site ID. The list contains data from other projects as well. What I would need is to have my stencil dropped everywhere the site ID on the drawing matches the data from the list. Then I would need the list connected to my stencil. Does anybody have any suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated. The red boxes are the stencil. They change colors depending on the construction phase. Thank you.
