Not a complete answer but hopefully some direction to the second question The registry key "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics\Scroll Width" or "Scroll Height" may be a good start. 8 pixels seems to equate to -120, 9 pixels = -135 and so on .... 32 pixels = -480.... Both of these values seem to be linked and change whenever the Appearance Display properties are changed. This was on a Win2K box but I would want to test it across all your targets.... Hope this can help out a bit JB
