Hi TheBigPinkLadI'm looking for a program that will wrap text around the outside of a circle easily
I use a couple of programs which will do something like what you're asking. What were you using it for? CD label printing? If so, you might look at Avery's Design Pro. In its label producing capabilities is something called Round Text, which might be what you are aiming for.
Another possibility if you have Micro$oft Word. There is a feature within it, called Word Art. It has a variety of shapes to put the text into, including Circle, Button, Circle or Button with Pour. Plus many others. Once you have the desired shape, you can put rotate it as well. See the quickie tutorial in the link above.
But unfortunately you seem to have tried the Word Art and it didn't do what you wanted.
Could you tell us a bit about what you're trying to do?
