Hi, i am somewhat of a new programmer to visual basic... progamming knowledge at a bit of a sad low level. part of the program i am building requires the following: my so called client leases out spaces on pieces of land for whatever purpose, in a sort of perfect grid. firstly, the layout of how the land will be divided is loaded as a template to the system, details stored on database... total plot dimensions, and vertical and horizontal spaces is stored. the program generates a little grid display of what it might look like, thats simple enough. when the user requires a piece of land to be formatted according to his needs, the template is selected from database, new entry is created in a table dealing with active plots. for each sector of land, a serial number gets generated, each sector state set to "vacant". the problem on my part (due to my pathetic coding skills) comes in with coding the actual bookings part of the system. when the user selects the appropriate plot of land to perform bookings on, an interactive display of the plot needs be generated out of information in the database table. occupied sectors and vacant sectors in different colours, and the user needs to be able to highlight various (multiple) vacant sectors to book for his client. when "book" is clicked, the status field in the land plot table needs to be changed from "vacant" to "occupied". i have a very very vague idea on how this is to be done, but at the moment, am completely stuck. not a clue as to how to generate the plot of land on screen with the different colours from the information in the database table, and beyond that, how to make it "interactive" with mouse events annnnd how to program it to return the values of which sections were selected i'd really appreciate any suggestions. :doh:
