I am an Access developer with a company in the UK. We want to develop an interactive visual interface for designing t-shirts. Sounds easy enough until it gets visual. Our requirement is to allow a user to select a range of possible style images, (long sleve, short sleve, collar, no collar etc ..) and then to apply colours to the various sections of the style. So, for instance a user picks a long sleeve t-shirt with a collar and 3 colour panels on the body. They might then choose to colour each sleeve differently, use different colours in each body panel, and yet another colour on the collar. The final result must be a picture of the t-shirt with all of the style/colour information on screen

I have no idea where to start - can anybody point me in the right direction

I've come to this forum because it's always managed to answer the tough questions in the past

Access is a great tool, Ben, but it's not the right tool for *every* job!
:-) I suspect you'll probably be far better off using VB6 or VB.NET for this
job.

That said, if you really want to try to do this in Access, check out Stephen
Lebans web site. Stephen is the guy who most often does things with Access
that the rest of us thought were impossible! :-)

I haven't used them myself, but there are ImageClass and PaintProgram
downloads available there.
