I really should have used the word "thumbnail" in my original questions
because it would have given a better picture of what is needed.
The problem with the standard web browser control is that you can't resize
the contents...as far as I can tell at least.
We need to be able to show a web page in say the upper left quadrant of the form with the contents rescaled to match the reduced size.
I discovered an interesting shareware product called WebSnapShot which can
be used to create a graphic snapshot of a web page. It works quite well but
has a couple of quirks which make it inappropriate for the project at hand.
I'm still scratching my head over this one...

>>Is there an ActiveX control that can be used to display an HTML page? I ask because I want to have a form where I display an HTML page in one quadrant of the form. So I need a sizable box in which I can display the contents of the page.
