You once helped me with a code to show icons on a form and connect them
to other icons in a circle with ropes and boxes. I have lost the code
and have only some parts of it recovered.

The only thing I could find in the newsgroups was this:

http://groups.google.nl/group/microsoft.public.vb.general.discussion/browse_frm/thread/c601dbb558b9f001/46fa069136a21625?lnk=st&q=LoadButtons+%3E%3D+Command1.Count&rnum=1&hl=nl#46fa069136a21625

I was hoping that you could help me out here.

Have a look at the "Best line between two rectangles" demo on my page for an example of how to draw the closest
connecting line between two rectangles. If you're using circles then you could use an easier method using the bounding
circle of the icon and Pythagoras theorem.
I don't recall the previous post so without more information there's a limit to what more help I can offer.
Hope this helps,

Mike
