I've been set a task to replicate a flowchart which has lines going to
various autoshape boxes. At the end of the lines (where they connect to the
boxes) the lines have a small circle and then go into three prongs which
touch the box.

Do I need to make this by hand with lines etc or does this exist somewhere
in Powerpoint?

Cheers

Damian,
I guess you have been handed a flowchart on paper? And you have to do it in
PPT?
Does not sound like any of the connector lines which are present in
PowerPoint. These are all lines that connect directly to the box. You can
make the connector lines end in a circle but that circle will be at the
end/beginning of the line in the anchor point of the object and touch it.
I guess if you want to reproduce that you will have to draw it yourself,
group and copy if need be. Off course these will be not behave as real
connector lines which means when you move the Auto shapes the lines will not
follow.
Am I still making sense?
 
Thank Luc! That was very helpful.
