Re: automatically Size GUI in VB6

Marilyn:
  I have found that it is best to determine the "least
common denominator"
for your users and design the screen for that (ie... you may
have some users
who run their computers at a resolution of 640X480).  When
you design a
screen
at a resolution of 800X600 and your user opens it up at
640X480, they will
have
things cut off.

Another option is to find a control that does automatic
resizing of forms
and controls
based on the users screen resolution.  I haven't worked in
VB6 in a while,
but I know
a few years back there were a few of these controls on the
market.
