How can I use text in a concentric layer in an onion diagram in V.

I am trying to create an onion diagram in Visio Pro 2003.
I would like the text to fit the circular shape of the partial or full
concentric layer.
Is there a way to do this. Just horizontal and vertical text is not very
useful.
Thanks

So what you are looking for is curved text that will fit between the
concentric circles?

Unfortunately, that and other advanced text manipulations is still on the
wish list. The current work around is to use a third part package to create
the curved text and then place that object in the Visio drawing.

Another alternate is to create a VBA macro that will break the text into
individual characters and place them, with the correct orientation, around
the circle.
