hi all,

here is what I am trying to achieve:

I have a form with a picture of a car (a drawing) just like the one's on the
form when you rent a car. I' d like to be able to allow the user to use the
mouse and indicate damages by circling or Xing the damaged areas.

How would I approach this?

Any input is greatly appreciated.

I am using VFP9 on an XP pro machine.

thank you,

Hutch

I have done something like that a few years ago, but for hoods rather than
whole cars. I had a template picture of a hood, and I added a drawing layre
over it and in my case the user could add dots to indicate the damage, but
drowaing circles is also possible.
I started out with the example 'draw lines and shapes on a form' in the
solutions and added a picture of a hood behind it, and we the user clicked
on the form I saved the pixel (x,y) location in a table, so when I need to
bring back this case, I would reload the picture and put back the marks
based on the pixel location.
Hope that helps
