Hi.
I don't really know how to ask this, so I'll just explain my objective instead.

I want to be able to have an image, best example would be a map of the United States. Then depending on certain circumstances, the states would each be colored a different color, for example a climate map where hotter states are red and cooler ones are blue. Then if I click another button, the map will be changed to a new set of colors, for example high population states will be green, and low ones will be yellow.
You see what I mean right?
So the question is, how do I do that?
Should I start with a scanned in image of the US that is plain white with black State borders. And if I do that, then how do I tell VB to fill the color of one state and to stop coloring at the border.

Maybe another way to say it is: how could I write an application that functions similar to a coloring book, coloring in irregular areas of an image?

If you have the answers, or just some helpful hints, please reply. Thanks
