You can insert a greater variety of callouts, such as balloons and clouds, by using the AddShape method.

Example

The following example adds a callout with a two-segment callout line, sets the angle of the end segment to 60 degrees from the vertical, and adds text to the callout.

Sub AddCallout()
    Dim oReports As Reports
    Dim oReport As Report
    Dim calloutShape As shape
    Dim reportName As String
    
    reportName = "Report 1"
    Set oReports = ActiveProject.Reports

    If oReports.IsPresent(reportName) Then
        ' Make the report the active view.
        oReports(reportName).Apply
        
        Set oReport = oReports(reportName)
        
        Set calloutShape = oReport.Shapes.AddCallout(Type:=msoCalloutTwo, _
                                        left:=200, top:=5, width:=100, height:=50)
        With calloutShape
            .Callout.Type = msoCalloutThree
            .Callout.Angle = msoCalloutAngle60
            .BackgroundStyle = msoBackgroundStylePreset10
            .TextFrame2.TextRange.Text = "This is a test"
        End With
    Else
         MsgBox Prompt:="The requested report, '" & reportName _
            & "', does not exist.", Title:="Report error"
    End If
End Sub
