Albert,

There's a limit on the size of scrollable form which is about double of the desktop resolution. See mskb #Q216985 BUG: Scrollbars Disappear if Objects Placed Past Certain Length for details. The limit has been increased in VFP9.

>Not sure what I am missing here: if I turn on scroll bars for a form, that is say 700 x 500, I observe the following:
>
>1) unless an object extends over the edge of the form, scroll bars do not appear
>
>2) if an object is over the edge, the scroll bar appears but the full object does not appear
>
>3) if I resize the form so that the object appears, the scroll bar goes away
>
>I can live with the scroll bars not appearing but what should I be doing so that the size of the window stays the same but the "real estate" "inside" of the window grows so that I can put more objects "inside" of it that are then visible when the user moves the scroll bar. Somehow I should not be touching THISFORM.Height or THISFORM.Width....?
