Using the Freeform Shape to Create a Custom Shape in Excel 2007:-
However, you can build any shape by using the Freeform line tools in the Shapes gallery. After you create a shape, you can add 3-D effects, glow, and so on to make a cool-looking version of your company logo, as shown in the Figure (given below).
(This shape was created with the Freeform shape tool and then enhanced using the Drawing Tools section of the Format ribbon.)
To create a custom shape, you follow these steps:
1. Insert a picture of the shape that you can use as a guide to trace.
2. From the Insert ribbon, choose the Shapes drop-down. In the Lines section, the last two shapes are Freeform and Scribble. Select the Freeform shape.
3. Click one corner of your logo.
4. Move the mouse to the adjacent corner of the logo and click again.
5. Repeat step 4 for each corner. If your logo has a curve, click several times around the perimeter of the curve. The more often you click, the better the curve will be.
6. When you arrive back at the original corner, click one final time to c[/PHP]lose the shape and complete the drawing.
7. Use the effect and fill settings to color and stylize the logo.
