Array a shape around an axis

[Aaron]

In CAD you can easily array an abject around a center point or axis. For example if have a circular object and wish to place 8 equally spaced holes on that object, there is a command for it. I wish to do the same in VISIO; I know there is a way to array shapes in a row and coloum formation. Does anyone know if there is a way to array shapes based on a center point or axis in a circular formation? Thank you in advance

There is a VBA example to repeat a shape in a circular pattern at
www.mvps.org/visio/VBA.htm It's called Polar Array.
