Image dimensions for a form background

[dstrange]

Hi, maybe I'm missing something but what measurement are a form's width and height in. It's not pixels. I was trying to make an image background for my form using the height and width of the form for the height and width of the image. I thought it was in pixels but it is not. Anyone know what VB dimensions are in? Better yet does anyone know an easy way to calculate an image size for a form?

Thanks in advance.

A Form's Width and Height Properties are measured in Twips; however that is the outer measurement of the Form. The area you want to fill with your image (the inner one) is Form.ScaleHeight by Form.ScaleWidth; that is measured in Twips by default but can be controlled by use of the Forms ScaleMode Property or Scale Method.
Twips can be converted to Pixels with;
Pixels = Twips/Screen.TwipsPerPixelX 'horizontal
Pixels = Twips/Screen.TwipsPerPixelY 'vertical
