Hello Experts.
I am quite finished with my Access VBA Application, and I want to add few graphic reports. Basically I need to display graphically some entries in a Access Table (Network Operators) and their relationship (Money Settlement for Interconnect) . The display should be possibly a regular polygon with the Operator Names or Logos at the vertexes and with the arrows showing the settlement amounts between each pair of them.
I have searched through the Internet, and the only solution that I found feasible (but I may be wrong) is to Powerpoints primitives for graphics. I have to say that the graphic shapes in Powerpoint 2000, are pretty horrible. A Pentagon is not a regula Polygon!?, and I ended up in using only Line to create myself the Regular Polygons. Furthermore I am unable to hide the Powerpoint window, and the whole process is really slow!!!!
Question, (I don't have visio), isn't available any low level graphic library to draw graphic better and faster than using Powerpoint?
Furthermore how can then I accomplish the task of loading the graph into an Access Form for givinng the User Interface a uniform look and feel?
Thanks a lot
