Thanks for sending me the code.  I appreciate it.  However, my situation is
a little more complicated than just 4 possibilities.  My problem arrises
from having to create 90 arcs at a set distance away from a point, but at
varying angles.  The problem I'm having is finding the MBR for that 90
degree arc at any angle from 0 to 360 degrees.

I have made a program that creates tree spreads. It creates arcs around each
point in a selected table and draws four arcs around the point taking
distances from the points data (North, South, East & West). Sounds roughly
what you want to do. I did find that the start and end X Y's are for the MBR
of the ellipse that the arc would make up. You are welcome to use my code to
help sort your problem.
