Hello all,
I'm trying to program a simple weather map for a project.
For this, I need to be able to have a cloud in a selected color (thought about using panels for this) appear where I click.
Can anybody give me pointers on how to achieve this?
Thank you in advance.

The challenge comes with how Access uses its objects. First, Access has limited shapes that can be made (there are no circles, for example). So, you would have to insert an image. In your case, it seems like you would have to have an image file in each possible color, and then, based on your selected color, insert an image of that color.
Another challenge has to do with control limits, as any form is limited to a maximum of 1024 controls on it over its lifetime, so, if you insert 32 clouds on your form, after 32 iterations, your form would not allow any more additions (even if you delete them.
Keep in mind that MS Access is a database application, and is not truly very well suited for graphics applications. Some things can be done, but it's usually not very fancy.....
