property visible always false 1

[Ravala]

I have small procedure,
Private Sub picData_Resize()
Dim sngHeight As Single
sngHeight = Me.txtName(0).Height * Me.txtName.Count + 100
scbVert.Visible = sngHeight > ScaleHeight
.... some code
End Sub
scbVert is flat scroll bar. It's never getting Visible even when sngHeight > ScaleHeight. What's wromg.

Thanks.

Things to investigate
=====================

1 - Change scbVert.Visible = sngHeight > ScaleHeight for (scbVert.Visible = sngHeight > ScaleHeight)

ie add the brackets

2 - Is the event actually firing - place a breakpoint in it and see.

3 - Is the property being reset to false elsewhere? Set up a watch on the Visible property and use the "Break on change" option.

Hope this helps,

Check out the results of:

MsgBox -1 = 5 > 0

and

MsgBox -1 = (5 > 0)

in first case, it is false
in second, it is true.

Yes. The point being that brackets make a difference to the outcome, and that this might be the cause of your isue.
