Hi all,
I have seen posts lately, here I believe, that someone(or more) wanted to know
how to add ScrollBars to their form, ie: ViewPort...
I have created a little example of doing this for forms that have controls
spread out larger than the Form can be.. IMHO this is NOT for DataEntry type
Forms... If you have this problem with them then rethinking your forms is
needed...
For general display of a lot of data, or like I have done to display a Flow
Diagram of a Web Site, then this might just be the ticket...

The size of the ViewPort is automaticly set to the proper widths/heights to
display all the controls...
It was designed using screen sized at 1024x768... I took a look at it at 640x480
and it was unusable... It worked but it sure took a lot of scrolling around just
to see a small part of the over all... LOL

If anyone is interested in it I can email a zipped up copy of the form and 6
little jpg's that are used for animation... [if it wasn't for these jpg's I
could just post the Form File listing]

Have a good day...

Don
