    STILL UNRESOLVED - Lightning answer needed...

    Hi All.

    I have several forms in my program, which i need extending to the length of an A4 sheet of paper, but it won't allow you to create a form, larger than the monitor size.... any ideas?

    I need to print an invoice full page, but can't insert anything else because i've run out of page ! lol

    Do i need scroll bars, if so... how? All the forms are already complete, so i don't want to rip them apart to put scroll bars in...

    This program has GOT to be finished 2day.... so any help would be much appreciated.

    Regards,

    Paul.

    Why don't you just create a Word template and copy the text from the invoiceform into the Wordfile and then print? Would be a lot easier way then to trying stretch a form to a4 size.

    If you use a MDI then the forms are shown in this mdi , if they are bigger than the screen then a scrollbar is added .(I think)
    Code:
    If Question = Incomplete Then
