To create XML file, please follow these steps:
1. Open fcp-3d-pie-chart-caption-1.xml in notepad.
2. Replace names of existing products to your own one For example, the strings:
<data name="Heaters" value="4.24" color="FF0000" /> into <data name="Dress" value="17" color="FF0000" />
3. You can also change the header in this string
<header text="Monthly electricity expenditures at home" font="Verdana" color="000000" size="18" />

4. Save your XML file.
You can include chart Using a specific ActiveX control and the Macromedia Flash Player. To run the Flash file, you add an ActiveX control to the PowerPoint slide and create a link from it to the Flash file.
You also have the option of embedding the file in the presentation. To include chart into your presentation, follow these steps:
1. Install the Macromedia Flash Player on your computer (http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14235).
2. In normal view in PowerPoint, display the slide on which you want to include the chart.
3. On the View menu, point to Toolbars, and then click Control Toolbox.
4. In the Control Toolbox, click More Controls (the button with the hammer and wrench icon).
5. In the list, scroll down and click Shockwave Flash Object, then drag on the slide to draw the control. You can resize the control at any point by dragging the sizing handles if you need to adjust it to the size of the chart.
6. Right-click the Shockwave Flash Object, and then click Properties.
7. On the Alphabetic tab, click the Movie property.
8. In the value column (the blank cell next to Movie), type the full drive path including the file name (in yuor example, fcp-pie-chart.swf?xml_file=examlpe.xml). Also change all fealds of the table like in EmbedSwfInPP.gif.
9. To run the animation: With the slide displayed in normal view, click the Slide Show button in the lower left of the PowerPoint window (or press F5, or, on the Slide Show menu, click View Show).
10. To exit the slide show and return to normal view, press ESC.
