Sizing parent form not individual control

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I want to add the CommandBars control to my VB6 project. In the samples
that I've seen the way to deal with form sizing is to process the
tbarXtreme_Resize() event, get the client area, as stated from the
CommandBar control, and resize the individual controls within the
client to fit within the new client area.

What I would like to do is to keep the existing client area the same,
but rather resize the form to make room for the CommandBar. When I try
and do that, I get an infinite callback to the Xtreme control resize
event.

What's the proper method to do the resizing, such that the main form gets resized and not the individual controls?

Thanks in advance. Regards,
