Remarks
Points is something like the following UDT:
Type PolyPoint
x As Single
y As Single
End Type
Type PolyArray
count As Long
xy(1024) As PolyPoint '---Can be any number of elements from 2 to 1024
End Type
Points is any UDT that must have the following structure:
•the first member is a LONG integer point count
•followed directly by the appropriate number of SINGLE precision floats to specify the actual coordinates
There must be at least two, and no more than 1024 vertices

Dim pa As PolyArray
'...
pa.count = 4 '---Indicate you need 4 vertex

pa.xy(1).y = y1-150 '---Y1
pa.xy(2).x = x1+150 '---X2
pa.xy(2).y = y1 '---Y2
pa.xy(3).x = x1 '---X3
pa.xy(3).y = y1+150 '---Y3
pa.xy(4).x = x1-150 '---X4
pa.xy(4).y = y1 '---Y4
