    Twips? aren't they used in VB6 and back only?
    I have never seen Twips in .NET.

    But anyway, in VB6, 1px was usually 15twips.
    It could differ with screen resolution or so, but I have never seen it to be different from 15 myself.
    I wish I could think of something witty to put in my sig...

    well beacuse it seems that this is really a vb question in vb 6 it was something like screen.twipsperpixelX and screen.twipsperpixelY and just take that value and mutiply it time your pixels.

    but all points/sizes in vb.net (that i know of) are meashured in pixels already
