Rob:
   I've been able to get Visual Basic for MSDOS to accept variables in
subroutine calls by using declare sub statements on all calling forms. 
However, this only works when you run from the VB environment.  The same
programs give unresolved external reference errors when you try to compile
them.  I don't know of anyway to size an inputbox.  Why don't you create your
own form which can be sized in the form designer or at run tim?

   I would like to know if there is some way to gang multiple list boxes so
that scrolling one box scrolls them all?
