Jim,

Does your resizing class account for small fonts/large fonts layout issues

or do you assume a small font environment. Any comments or insights on the

small vs. large fonts issue and form resizing?

Thanks!

Malcolm,

It's a combination of two or three public domain classes

and some added coding by me.

I'm like Bill G, I can't invent a wheel, but I can usually make

it rounder.

Malcomb,

I'll have to look. I havn't looked at it in a long time and

have no idea what I thought about at the time.

Anyway, I can get you a copy of it.
