The aim of this exercise is to make it easier to create a pie chart, so that you can run the following code:
Sub CreateAndPrintPreviewPieChart()
'make sure on the right worksheet
Worksheets("Data").Select
'create a new pie chart
Dim p As New SimplePieChart
'say where data coming from
p.DataRange = "B4:F5"
'set the title
p.Title = "GDP per head ($)"
'explode third pie slice
p.DataPointToExplode = 3
'print preview this chart
p.PrintPreview
Set p = Nothing
End Sub
With classes it always helps to have the destination in mind
After running the code above, your final chart will look something like this:
This is a separate-sheet chart, with slice 3 exploded.
With all of this background, you're ready for the task! Create the class called SimplePieChart, and add the properties and methods necessary to get the above code to work.
Make full use of recording to get the right code in the first place.
When you have your code working, save this file as Pie Chart Class and close it down.
