Drawing a Hex Map

[Michael Gove]

I'm looking for some sample code that shows how to properly draw a
hexagonal map. I'd like to also see how to make the hex click-able.

I found an old post
(http://groups.google.com/group/micro...cb51d96e0abf3b)
where Gerald Hernandez was kind enough to put some sample code together
but after contacting him found out due to a hardware snafu the code was
lost.

I've found several good resources so far (listed below) but wanted to
check here also.
