Yeah, put a Maximize button in the modal dialog box. That's the only way you're going to be able to handle this. However, I really wouldn't suggest going about the path you're going. Minimize and maximize should be handled via the caption bar buttons like normal windows apps do. Either that or through a menu choice (I believe Excel uses the menu bar for maximizing). -- "Organized fandom is composed of a bunch of nitpickers with a thing for trivial pursuit." -Harlan Ellison Patrick Deupree -> patrickd@chinet.chi.il.us
