Power Point - how to make a piece of pie?

[Spurious]

I basically want to create a pie chart with VBA.
What do I need to do, to accomplish this? I couldnt get it done.

Do you mean you want to use PowerPoint VBA to create a slide and add a Pie Chart? Which version of MS Office are you using as version 2003 or less will allow you to record a macro to help give you the code. What code have you tried.

Would this link help

No, the pie chart function is unfortunately not what I am looking for. I expressed myself terribly wrong in the OP.

I want to take a piece of a circle. Basically one piece of a pie chart without using the pie chart function (pie chart function creates a chart, I dont really need a chart).

What do you want to do with the segmnent? Move it, Color it or something else, it would still be useful for you to state which version of MS Office you are using?

Oh yeah, 2003 Office.

I want to make a button to automatically create a random piece of a circle and color it in a random color.

Currently, I am failing to even create the piece.

As you are using 2003 then you can record a macro to use a drawing shape and colour that will give you the basis for what you want (I think).

 

[Spurious]

Yeah, I know.
The actual problem I have is getting the circled shape for one of the edges.
I get it round but not circle round. I need to find a way to position the points.
