My application lets gardeners keep track of plants they have in their
garden. One of the fields is txtPlantLocation, which contains the location
(bed) in the garden where the plant is planted.
Right now, this functionality is completely text-based: I.e., you type in
some identifier for the location.
It would REALLY be nice if I could also incorporate some graphic approach to
depicting the garden bed layout--in other words, a map!
I'm imagining a cmdMap button, which would pop up a map of the garden that
contains named "blobs" (beds). When you click on a bed blob, the bed's
identifier is returned.
It's the same idea as displaying a calendar for entering a value into a date
field.
I guess this isn't really an Access question, but I'm wondering if any of
you know of someone who's solved this problem before, or if you have any
helpful ideas.
I'm imagining it would involve some kind of HTML object, but I have no idea
how to create it.
Thanks in advance!
