SetRgn... example for Access 2.0

This example demonstrates the SetRgnEllipse, SetRgnRect, SetRgnRoundRect, and SetRgnPolygon methods by simulating client area coordinates. Normally, you would get the coordinates interactively from mouse events and would use Windows GDI functions to outline the shape of each region before it is created.

To create the polygonal region, this example uses the PolygonSize, PolygonX, and PolygonY properties.

Also, to demonstrate the SetRgnColor method, it uses the Fill method to fill the region with a solid color, then uses the fill color to create a new region.
