Some basic shapes can be drawn and located with VBA, parametrically or by
hard code. I know of no other way to draw shapes to specific dimensions.

Glad to know there is a way, although I am not that good at VBA. I was sad
to learn that the dimension feature for shapes in Excel 97 had been removed
the 2007 version. I depended on it a lot for various tasks.

Oops! Just discovered where they moved it to. Thought it was gone.

Make a shape, select it. Right click for menu and select "Size &
Properties...". Type your dimensions in the value boxes.
