Hi,
Is there a way to put a border around a listbox with multiple
columns and rows? I can get borderlines to showup any place I want
except the outside edges.
There are several ways to do this. For example, drag a canvas onto
your window, then drag your list box onto that so that it is more or
less centered within the canvas. The canvas will be the container.
Then put code like this into the canvas Paint event:
g.PenHeight = 6
g.PenWidth = 6
g.ForeColor = rgb(200,50,50)
g.DrawRect ListBox1.Left - me.Left -6, ListBox1.Top - me.Top - 6,
ListBox1.Width + 12, ListBox1.Height + 12
If your window is resizable, lock the canvas in all four freedoms.
This code draws a plain border, but you can get very creative. Draw a
bevel, for example. There is an example in the LR.
