how to make a background clickable..

[ecwj85]

im beginner of VB and currently i try using visual promatrix which is quite similar to VB. As the pic attached below..it is my background,logo of the whole system, it is not a form. Anyone can help me on the coding to make the 14small pics into 14 clickable button which can link to any single form. Thanks..

So the whole thing is an image, and it's the background for your HTML page?

In that case you will need to separate the button images and put them into anchor tags to make links.

Although I don't recommend making a page out of all images. Partly because they're butt ugly, and partly because it's quite hard to make it usable.

haha actually its jz a background..however, there is request for me to make it as buttons.. its not a html page..is a software...something like accounting software...the main page..where there is picture of general ledger, where they can click the pic to go in for any keying data process. do you know anything about Visual Pro Matrix or Visual foxpro?

No I don't, if it's not a web page then you're in completely the wrong forum. Go to the index page and find a more appropriate one. I suggest General Developer.

Edit: I'll get a mod to move this for you.

Can you subclass your form? If you can, can you receive mouse clicks and get their locations? If you can, map the form and relate mouse click locations to the picture they occur in. (It's a lot easier with web pages, because there are apps already developed to map the page.)

is there anyone who is familiar with visual promatrix?
