Hi all,

I'm looking to generate images/image files, basic rectangles made up of smaller squares, with varying colours based on data in my Access 2003 db tables. Basically the table has fields storing rating values which determines the colour of squares on the face of the rectangle.

My search so far has not been fruitful.

Any help would be appreciated,
 

Excel Facts

Fastest way to copy a worksheet?
Hold down the Ctrl key while dragging tab for Sheet1 to the right. Excel will make a copy of the worksheet.
When you say basic rectangles could you not use the rectangle tool on the toolbox and then do something like this?

Code:
Private Sub Text1_AfterUpdate()
If Me.Text1.Value = "1" Then
    Me.Box0.BackColor = vbBlue
Else
    Me.Box0.BackColor = vbRed
End If
End Sub

text1 is basically your field that stores the rating.
