    Cannot resize my form in design mode

    This is the second time this has happened to me in my current project. I open my form and the width is smaller than I want. The form is not 'locked' meaning I can size the form, it just won't take anything beyond a width of 11520. Even if I put in 20,000, it goes back to 11520. Does anyone have any idea what would cause this?

    There is limit to the dimensions that you can set to a form. For vb6 it takes a max. width of 15360(I think, correct me if I am wrong). I don't know what version and OS you are working on

    Re: Cannot resize my form in design mode

    Actually it must be a bug in my VB6 and my machine. I have a laptop and sometimes when suspend then restart the machine the screen goes back to 640*480 and I have to change it back to 1024*768. This was the case this time as well. When I exited VB and rebooted the machine, I was then able to resize the form as desired. Go figure...

    Thanks for your help though.
