Copy this code in a form file and save it. Then open it in VB.

This code puts a vertical scrollbar on a form. It also add several others controls. One of them will not move when you will be scrolling.

'Explanation:
' 1. Start out by making the form big enough to show
' all the controls of the form.
' 2. Make a note of the height of the form.
' 3. Resize the form to the display size.
' 4. Make a note of the height of the form.
' 5. Place a vertical scroll bar control on the right side of the form.
' 6. The Max property of the scroll bar should be set to the difference
' between the height of the full form (2) less the height of the
' displayed form (4).
