Hi all. Well I decided to start a new message, as the last one was sorted, but this relates to the same control. I have created an OCX from the control. It has an align property, BUT whenI drop the OCX on VB (dot hit me please....) form it wont alight to the top as it is meant to....is this a parent problem (not my parents the forms control parent) ? I.e. i need to specify the parent, type maybe, for it to work ? or do i need to do something extra ?
