Is there really no way to do this???

Is there really no way to produce a form larger than the screen?I want to be able to scroll down with a side scrollbar, but I need to place the controls which I will move with the scrollbar's events.Do I really have to settle for setting the top and left properties of the controls manually?

If it looks like something you are interested in, let me know. I have
made a few improvements to it since.

So do I have this right? You make this control larger than the form while you're placing the controls and move it about, then shrink it down when you are done?

Interesting... BTW, which version of VB is the project written with? Temporarily I'm stuck with a PHB insisting I use 5

Yes, that is the way it works. Unfortunately, it is written in vb6. I don't
know if it can easily converted to vb5 or not.

Here is the updated version of the ScrollControl.

I'll try the update shortly. FYI, the earlier version drops straight into VB5 and works fine.
