Hi all

What I have is a vb program when run and the apropriate data is inputed, calcualations are done and then are outputed to a listbox what i want to know is there a way to have the listbox resize when the main window is resized.

Resize
hope it shud help u!!! it will resize other controls (those which can be resized) on the object/form!!
Hi Edward
Try following:
go to the Event of Form_Paint() and write
ListBox.Top = 10
ListBox.Left = 10
ListBox.Height = me.Height - 20
ListBox.Width = me.Width - 20
me is the Form itself and the Value of 20 must be adjusted for your Form.
if you have a Scrollbar then is mayby 200 nice.

i hope i m correct, coz Paint event is generally avoided if u want to resize controls instancing on the object!!
yes, and just use 'on error resume next' statement to ignor all errors

PS - maybe i m wrong..........i m saying coz this is a common problem with Paint event!!
I'm not sure if the flicker an coz problem but if you play with the Values you get a better result, 20 was just a example.
The Error handle must be integrated because if you minimized the Form you get errors.
