Horizontal scroll question

[ribhead]

I asked this question a while back but didn't get anything to help. I have created a list box with about 12 columns. My problem is that when I scroll the last column width is huge. How can I correct this issue?

Thanks, Rib

Take a look at the ColumnWidths property.

Hope This Helps, PH.

How are ya ribhead . . . . .

[blue][purple]Width[/purple] property = Sum of [purple]Column Widths[/purple] property[/blue]

If [purple]Column Widths[/purple]= [blue]1";0.55";0";0";0.75"[/blue]
Then [purple]Width[/purple] = [blue]2.30[/blue]

See Ya! . . . . . .

I've looked at the column width property. I understand about adding the widths up and making that my listbox width but what happens when you are restricted on space and have to make the listbox width smaller? Isn't that the reason for a horizontal scroll bar? For example I created a listbox with 6 columns and made them each 1". I made my list box width 6" and I get a horizontal scroll bar (cool) but when I scroll the last column is really wide. And I don't know why!

Thanks, Rib

Checked my library. You can [blue]increase the Width of the control a little[/blue] till the scrollbar disappears (then th columns show proper), but this is not what you want. I also show I did an extensive search on the problem & came up blank.

GoodLuck with this one . . . . .

See Ya! . . . . . .
