A system (12) operating on a computer (14) creates an executable flowchart (26). The system (12) includes a constructor (24) that generates objects (28) that define the executable flowchart (26). The objects (28) include a first shape (40) and a second shape (40). A data structure (30) stores information associated with the objects (28). An entity (60) located at the first shape (40) accesses the data structure (30) to accumulate information associated with the first shape (40). The entity (60) advances from the first shape (40) to the second shape (40) to associate at least a portion of the accumulated information with the second shape (40) in response to advancing.
