Query Wizard list boxes too small - RBEnt7.01 D6

rbuser

We use a data dictionary with descriptive table and field aliases that
can get quite long. For many fields the list boxes are too narrow
(and don't scroll horizontally).

Do I have to register my own query wizard (starting with the standard)
and make inline code changes?

If I do could you point me at some key spots to look at and change?

Really what I want is to allow the user to size the form (growing the
list boxes) and save/restore the size to/from the ini file.

Thanks,

You can replace the query tools and increase the width of the list boxes by
setting the ScrollWidth property and disabling the MultiSelect property as
shown in this demo. You can also change the width, and not set ScrollWidth,
if you want to keep MultiSelect = True.

Thanks I will customize yours. Perhaps you could put this on your
list since I know others have had similar issues?
