Subject: [RBG7-L] - Re: change form size based on screen size
Most of the data in my forms are contained in an area of about 640x480,
however i want the back ground to be able to expand to the max screen
area. our databases are on a network with 5 users and each has the
screen resolution different due to screen size and blindness level.
I'll will worry about centering the data once i can get the height and
width.
by using (cval('screensize')) I can get the height and width as 1
variable, but i need them seperate. Is there a way to get that using
cval, PROPERTY or some other way?
