Place 2 Pictureboxes on a Form and a Horizontal and Vertical Scrollbar, (Don't Worry about positioning anything)

Then, treating Picture1 as your Virtual Form, make it as big as you want your VF to be and add some controls to it so that they are contained within Picture1. (Right Click the Control, select Cut, Right Click Picture1, Select Paste).

Then use this code in the Form..

Private Sub Form_Load()
    Picture1.Move 0, 0
    Picture1.BorderStyle = vbBSNone
    Picture1.ZOrder 1
    Picture2.BorderStyle = vbBSNone
    Picture2.Visible = False
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Resize()
    DoEvents
    HScroll1.Visible = (ScaleWidth < Picture1.Width)
    VScroll1.Visible = (ScaleHeight < Picture1.Height)
        
    If HScroll1.Visible Then
        HScroll1.Move 0, ScaleHeight - HScroll1.Height, ScaleWidth - IIf(VScroll1.Visible, VScroll1.Width, 0), HScroll1.Height
        HScroll1.Max = Picture1.Width - (ScaleWidth - IIf(VScroll1.Visible, VScroll1.Width, 0))
        HScroll1.LargeChange = HScroll1.Max / 10
        HScroll1.SmallChange = 100
    Else
        HScroll1 = 0
    End If
    If VScroll1.Visible Then
        VScroll1.Move ScaleWidth - VScroll1.Width, 0, VScroll1.Width, ScaleHeight - IIf(HScroll1.Visible, HScroll1.Height, 0)
        VScroll1.Max = Picture1.Height - (ScaleHeight - IIf(VScroll1.Visible, HScroll1.Height, 0))
        VScroll1.LargeChange = VScroll1.Max / 10
        VScroll1.SmallChange = 100
    Else
        VScroll1 = 0
    End If
    If HScroll1.Visible And VScroll1.Visible Then
        Picture2.Move VScroll1.Left, HScroll1.Top, VScroll1.Width, HScroll1.Height
        Picture2.Visible = True
    Else
        Picture2.Visible = False
    End If
End Sub

Private Sub HScroll1_Change()
    HScroll1_Scroll
End Sub

Private Sub HScroll1_Scroll()
    Picture1.Move -HScroll1, -VScroll1
End Sub

Private Sub VScroll1_Change()
    HScroll1_Scroll
End Sub

Private Sub VScroll1_Scroll()
    HScroll1_Scroll
End Sub
