Hello,

I am making a small progs to do calculations.
It's mainly textboxes and labels, except the command buttons.
It's not a real complicated progs.

However, the prog is used on different computers, using different screen resolution.
Now, on my laptop, all fit, but on other desktop, it's doesn't fit the screen.

I thought to place a VBScrollBar in the frame, but learned it's not doable.

I place all the textboxes, labels and command button in a container (frame1).

The Scrollbar works, but the contents in the frame don't move at all.

Any idea on how I can program the VScrollBar to move (lower or higher) all the frame content ?

Thanks for your help :-)

I wrote a tutorial on resizing the form based on the current screen resolution that I think you may be looking for smile.gif

Happy Coding!

Hi:
To move the container (frame1) you have to change the top property with the VScroll_Change event.

CODE

Private Sub VScroll1_Change()
  Frame1.Top = -VScroll1.Value
End Sub


In the next example i use a picturebox (Picture1) as a container for the frame1 control with the main controls to move it around.

You can also follow PsychoCoder tutorial to resize the main form based on the current screen resolution icon_up.gif .
