Add labels at runtime to an Elliptic Form

I have created a form using the CreateEllipticRgn Api.

I would like to add labels to this form at runtime if possible.

The code I have at the moment for the labels is
sub add_labels
dim cx as long, cy as long
dim i as integer
const deg as single = 0.01744
dim a as single
n=20
a=(360/n*deg)
cx=frmbull.scalewidth/2
cy=frmbull.scaleheight/2
for i = 1 to 20
if i > 0 then load lblBull(i)
lblBull(i).move cnt(cx+cx*sin(i*a)),cint(cy-cy*cos(i*a))
lblBull(i).visible=true
for each label in lblBull
with lblBull(i)
.fontsize = 18
.forecolor = vbblack
end sub

This code works on an ordinary form by placing the labels in a circle, however, this is not the desired effect.
If I divide the move formula by 2 then the labels are visible on the form but are more to the middle than the edge.

Can i just clarify, you can load new labels at runtime fine, you just cant get them in the center of the shaped form?

The labels are loaded and can be seen if the formula is divided by 2 in the centre of the form

It is around the outer edge of the form I wish the labels to be displayed similar to a clock face.

I have been able to place the labels in this fashion but it took alot of hard coding - and I figure if I can keep them in an array using the code presented they will be easier to control.


Hope this makes clarifys things.
