Does anyone know how to intercept the min/max button press and prevent it
from doing the resize and than perform your own custom maximize ?

Dude.  Don't multipost.  You already have _two_ answers elsewhere.

Sorry,

I couldn't decide which group to post the question in.  Is there a way to
post it to both but have them linked together ?

Yes, it's called cross-posting.  Depends on your newsclient, how it's done.  In OE,
you just click that "Newsgroups" header, up top, and add which ever groups are
*relevent*.

Yes... and it works GREAT <g> It's called Crossposting. Since you're using
Outlook Express, you've probably subscribed to a few groups on this server.
When starting the post, pick the one you think's best. Before hitting Send
though, click the "Newsgroups:" button (it doesn't look like a button but it
is... a little icon with the word "Newsgroups:" next to it)... clicking that
button brings up a list of groups you've subscribed to. Select a few more
(don't go nuts) and hit the Add button... When you click Ok, you'll end up
with several groups in the Newsgroups box, all separated by commas (just
like sending email to more than one person).

The good news for you is, your question will end up in all groups shown on
the line, so it won't matter which of the groups you browse to look for an
answer. The good news for people answering questions is.... all answers, no
matter which group in the list they originated from, will be "tied"
together. That means people from several groups will be responding to the
same thread. You get better answers and the people answering can bypass a
question that already has good answers.

You'd need code in the Resize event. Check the forms WindowState property.
vbMinimized or vbMaximized is what you'd look for. Then, set WindowState =
vbNormal and size it the way you want.
