I am just wondering what is the best way of doing this for smoothest operation. &nbsp;I will be making a tile map that they can right click on the map and move map up and down in the form. &nbsp;The form will take up about a 4th of the screen and by clicking on castles on the map other forms pop up to give them choices to do things. &nbsp;I was wondering what would be the smoothest for the map scrolling around, they will be pretty large maps so I cant draw whole map at once. &nbsp;Things I have seen are api calls and direct x just wondering if anyone out there knows much about this? &nbsp;If so i will be asking more questions in direct relation to your answer and will keep feeding you points for each question.<br />
Thanks in advance.

Visual basic Tile Map for game

Most development for the Microsoft platform is done utilizing the technologies supported by the.NET framework. Other development is done using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) for programs like Access, Excel, Word and Outlook, with PowerShell for scripting, or with SQL for large databases.

Microsoft Development

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
