How can I set the the Height and Width properties of a form so it will fill the screen at 640 X 480 and also for 800 X 600. Or better yet a pixel/twip ratio would work.

' * Comments :
' * This class can change size and location of controls On your form
' * 1. Resize form
' * 2. Change screen resolution
' * Assumes:1. Add Elastic.cls
' * 2. Add declaration 'Private El as New class_Elastic'
' * 3. Insert string like 'El.init Me' (formload event)
' * 4. Insert string like 'El.FormResize Me' (Resize event)
' * 5. Press 'F5' and resize form ....
