Anyone know how to make a pie chart on MS Works?
I have a project due at work and I need to do a pie chart with different colors for each section.

Anyone know how I can draw one on MS Works?

1. it's simple, really

enter the data in a range of cells (horizontal) in a spreadsheet

select the cells

select Tools, Create New Chart

select the Pie Chart format.

4. Actually, for just a simple - non-fancy freehand drawing - MS paint
.
.

Is easy to use, and is in every Windows program back to Windows 3.1 !

You can always "fancy it up" in a another program later

Oh there is a small, Free Program that I am using sometimes as well called Image Forge

It's only 5meg and works well for it's size



That link will take you to the download site, and you can read more information on it there before you decide

on second thought, remembering that the above program is a trial deal

you may want to try the ABSOLUTELY NO STRINGS ATTACHED program

I almost forgot, they don't supply this version at their main site that I can see

so check the following first maybe, they ARE the same program basically, just that the one below has no strings attached, and is just minus a few bells n whistles ( just clik on the Winsite logo)



Here's a screen shot and some more info too



Freeware image editing studio for creating, painting and modifying artwork, photos, .avi animations and picture albums.

Hope this helps a wee bit.
