Form Size

[djj55]

Hello, In VB 2005 I have a form that I want to be long. The maximum size I can get is 1036. No mater what I type in it goes back to 1036. Note that my monitor is set to 1280x1024.

I will not go into the politics that are behind a long form but tabs are not to be used. ??

My question is how is the maximum size (height) of a form determined? Can it be changed?

Thank you,
djj

I believe (not 100% positive) that it is based on your current resolution. So, you could bump up your resolution which would work for a while. Or you could try changing the size via code. I would take a guess that the size limitation is an issue with the way Visual Studio renders objects for the GUI editor. If you make the change in code, it will likely work correctly.

p.s. My resolution is currently at max for the driver.
