For the location recording of pallets in our warehouse we use a three
dimensional grid as follows:
Left to right, rows A to M
Front to back, stacks 1 to 4
Bottom to top, levels 1 to 3
So to log the position of a pallet in the second row from the left, and in
the third stack back from the aisle, and on the second level, we would use
Location: B-3-2.
This works fine and we use a simple whiteboard to track the pallets at
present but as I have now got all other aspects of our business covered by my
Access system we would like to have a graphic display of all the pallet
positions in the warehouse and to have them coloured green when empty and red
when occupied.
I wouldn't have any problem doing this for one level, i.e. a single plane,
or even to display separately for each level, one at a time, but I can't
think how to do it three-dimensionally.
Bright ideas welcome!
Many thanks
