OpenSTAAD Break Beam

Question

Hell... 
 
 I have made Excel based VB program using OpenSTAAD. I am unable to create geometry using this program. However I am unable to break beam (at intersection) using OpenSTAAD command. I have to manually select Nodes & then use Break Beam command. 
 
 OpenSTAAD have command for Selection of Nodes i.e. objOpenSTAAD.Geometry.SelectMultipleNodes NodeNos 
 but i have not found any command to break beam. 
 
 Please help me how to do this through Excel VB program. 
 Thanks in Advance

In STAAD.Pro V22 U11, one function is implemented to break beams at selected node. The function name is BreakBeamsAtSpecificNodes

VBA Syntax to split beam into unequal parts: 
 Dim nBeamNo As Long Dim nNodes As Long Dim faDistToNodes(3) As Double Set objOpenStaad = GetObject(, "StaadPro.OpenSTAAD") 
 nBeamNo = 1 ' Beam Length is 10 m nNodes = 4 faDistToNodes(0) = 2 faDistToNodes(1) = 5 faDistToNodes(2) = 6 faDistToNodes(3) = 9 ' Add split Beam # 1 into 5 unequal parts. objOpenStaad.Geometry.SplitBeam nBeamNo, nNodes, faDistToNodes
