ImageMap?

[Armando]

I'd like to be able to create some clickable areas on a form, which will
likely be rectangular, but not necessarily aligned horizontally / vertically
(ie on a slant) - is there any way in Access 2000 to accomplish this? Is
there a way to put an HTML view on a form so I can use ImageMaps? Other
ideas?

Thanks,

Armando

You can use the MouseDown event handler for a form section or image control to
determine the exact coordinates when the mouse was clicked (so long as there
are no other controls on top of it at that position). You'll have to write
your own code to figure out how that divides up into regions, but if you know
basic Trig., that's pretty easy.
