hi HB,

AFAIK, the vb "circle" (or shape) is an intrinsic(?), light-weight(?),
implicit(?) control, in other words that is not a control per se, vb just
draws the circle on your form for you.  As such, there is no "control" to
use with vba.

However, since you asked in an api group, there is an api way to do it, by
calling the ellipse api.

If you don't like calling api's, then you could just use a simple graphics
package (paint will do) and create a circle graphic, then show it using an
image control (which forms 2.0 DOES have)...

cheers, jw
