If nothing else, this added a little extra "WOW!" factor to my application.

This started out as an ancillary project for incorporation into a much larger project that
gathers statistical data on job incidents occurring in Lower Manhattan. It allows the user
to view predefined maps of targeted areas in the borough. The maps are embedded on an
Access form, using the Active-X Webrowser control. They are interactive in that the user
can scroll through them, and zoom in/out. The process of adding new map references
proved a little cumbersome, so additional functionality was included to make it easy
...or at least easier...to find and embed new maps.

Sidenote: I'm a little dissatisfied with having to store the HTML string in multiple text fields.
If anyone knows of a Compact / Decompact function that can convert a 500 character
string to one of less than 256 characters (without the use of a DLL) I'd like to hear from you.
