I forced myself to finish up the graphics issues with the Coast Line, and the Rivers and Roads before I continued on with the Editor Code. Oh how I hate graphics!!!

I did get into getting a Class set up with the data requirements that will hold all of the information that is needed to link maps together. I settled on a system where the User picks the maps that might be along the edges of the selected map, and then the person editing the map can go onto the map visually to assign "up" and "down" links to other maps by merely clicking on a location, typing in the name of the associated map, and declaring the X- and Y- coordinates of where the link will place a future user. Of course, the person editing the map should know where the destination is. If not, they will be able to go back and modify the entry for the link.

Here's a new screen shot with the coast lines being shown, and a river leading into a lake.
