[wittekat01]

Hello to you all,

I want to resize a form in visual basic6.
But the problem is that the menu doesn't resize with the form.
Anyone a suggestion?
Thanks

Welcome to the Forums.

What do you mean the menu doesnt resize? Menus shouldnt resize but the menu bar should span across th form at least.

Hi Rob,
When you change the resolution of your screen, eg from 1024 to 1200,
then the form is smaller.
I have created a function that enlarger the form automatically.
For example, the width of the form is changed by the code
me.width=me.with* resolutionfactor
where the resolutionfactor = 1200/1024
So, in this way the form is automatically resized to the size it
had in screen-resolution 1024.

But the menu-items in this form (menu-items, like in outlook: File, Edit,View, etc., are NOT resized. How can I resize them.?

Thanks in advance

Like I posted they do not resize no matter what the screen size or resolution. If you want to resize them probably creating your own or subclassing the menu is what you will have to do. Not easy but not impossible either.
