Sorry pal this forum isn't verry big on *work* but rather play

Hope you manage however. If kronos comes in to work today I will let him know someone has a query. I am sure he wouldn't mind taking a look.

When you say resize !
Do u mean it doesnt resize when resize it with the mouse ?

Right-Click in VB's toolbar and click customize
In the resulting dialog click on the commands tab.
In the Categories List, select Help.
Select "About Microsoft Visual Basic" in the Command List, and drag it to any menu or the toolbar.
Right-click on the item you just dragged and rename it to "Show VB Credits" (without quotes).
Close the "Customize" dialog and click on the "Show VB Credits" item.

I mean when you make the web browser tool fit the whole form in 800 X 600 and it fits a small section in 1024 X 768

Well have you tried the following

put the webbrowser control on a from.
double click the form then goto its Resize sub

Eg:

Private Sub Form_Resize()
On Error Resume Next

WebBrowser1.top = 0
WebBrowser1.left = 0

WebBrowser1.Height = Form1.Height - 1000
WebBrowser1.Width = Form1.Width - 100



End Sub

I know its dumb but it surly works
the -1000 is just to make sure the Taskbar doesnt cover part of the
WebBrowser Control and the -100 to not make it go out the screen.

Hope it helps........

Good answer. The one thing I know about VB is that it doen't have layout managers so you have to do all that resizing stuff yourself.
