    Resolved [RESOLVED] Another How To, I guess?

    I need to get the Frame control that is packaged with Microsoft Office 2000 and then make that control be redistributiable. Becuase there are certain element that I need that are bound with that control. For instance the scrolling of the screen with scrollbars and etc.

    Can anyone please help me!!

    i believe that if that frame is part of the msforms2 toolbox, they are not licensed for redistribution, so if any user does not have office you can not use that control
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed

    Yes, fm20.dll contains these controls. INFO: Usage and Redistribution of FM20.DLL states clearly that this DLL is never redistributable. It does describe one workaround that requires manual action by the user in order to be legitimate. I'm surprised the downloadable product described is still available and would not expect it to continue to be so for very long.

    This is unfortunate in many ways. Not only does fm20.dll offer a scrolling Frame, most of its controls are Unicode enabled unlike equivalent intrinsic VB6 controls.

    You don't need fm20 to do that. Please see Scroll a form"]this[/URL].
