    Drawing

    I think I have come to a problem once or twice before.
    In VB6, we have Shape to draw lines and rectangle/triangle stuffs, but how
    do we do that in VB.NET? I don't know if I missed any Toolbox there, but
    just simply couldn't find.

      Handle the form's 'Paint' event and draw the shapes there
      ('e.Graphics.{D raw*, Fill*}').

          There are also commercial libraries that perform this task far better than
          the old Shape classes.

              OK, thank you everyone.
              I just want to know the answer and it is enough now (library - 3rd party,
              code).
              Normally now whenever I want to draw separator (3D lines), I just use frame
              or (what's it called now?) without caption (yeah, text property, in VB.NET),
              and size it properly to have gray and white line side by side.

              Just a quick way.
              I don't think drawing with code is efficient in the first place, such as one
              I am encountering now, drawing tables in RTF document with
              code......Someb ody else please do the dirty job for me......
