Hello All,

    I have a question about WinForms.  I'm writing this C# app. that is
supposed to display a group of machines and the way they are connected to
each other.  I've never done any image representation within a GUI before
and I would like to seek some advise on what would be the best way to do
this ?  Basically I'm thinking about representing different machines on the
screen by icons (System.Drawing.Icon class) and representing connections
between two hosts with arrows (System.Drawing.Line class).  The surface that
I'm planning to draw all these objects on would be a Panel
(System.Windows.Forms.Panel class).  Does this sound right ?  I'm also
looking into having the ability to right-click an icon to display a menu
from which the user can choose from.  Will the System.Drawing.Icon class let
me do this ?  If not what will ?  Thanks in advance...

-Pete
