Need code to make circle within VB and place in Excel cell with number in middle of circle

I have an Excel worksheet that lists the risks on our program.  I am developing a risk matrix within another Excel worksheet to depict the ranking of the risks.  I want to place a circle within certain cells that depict the ranking of the risk (occurance/impact) along with the number of the risk embedded in the circle.  Is it possible to do that?  Or do I need to put the number beside the circle?  If so, could you provide example code that will do that?

Could you post a sample workbook? Can't quite visualise what you want to do. You can certainly put text inside a circle.

The risk matrix is in a separate worksheet.  I want to draw a circle in the appropriate cell in the risk matrix according to the ranking of the risk (likelihood and consequence values).  I also want to extract the number from the risk number and put inside the circle (1,2,3,4).

What I was after was some indication of the results you were envisaging. Can you add that?
Yes, I apologize, please see attached.

I see now. Presumably if you have more than one entry in a square you want the ovals regularly spaced?
To add to this, how many are likely to be in any square - is there a theoretical or practical limit?
