Search box at bottom of screenThis just started happening to me while using VB6. When I call up the Search
box, it appears at the bottom of the screen, instead of in the middle. I can drag it to the middle, but as soon as I press the Find Next button, it goes back to the bottom of the screen. How do I fix this? Scott M. Has anything on your system changed? Like did you install any SP's.
One thing to try is remove all add-ins and see if the problem persists. -- Show quoteHide quoteChris Hanscom - Microsoft MVP (VB) Veign's Resource Center http://www.veign.com/vrc_main.asp -- Read.

I guess if the procedure module is short enough to not have scrollbars the dialog would be relocated. -- Show quoteHide quoteChris Hanscom - Microsoft MVP (VB) Veign's Resource Center http://www.veign.com/vrc_main.asp -- Read.

screen and exited VB right away. The next time I went into VB, the search box started appearing in the middle of the screen.

I see the same at times, but what I usually do for multiple searches is just close the search box and use F3 to walk through all find results. I like that better anyhow because I can see all the code.

If your Immediate window is large enough, the search box appears below.
