When I size my child window (using MoveWindow) I want to allow for
the client area and for a scroll bar (if needed). Unfortunately I
don't see anything that gives the width of a scroll bar. Are they
always the same size? Right now I'm using the value 20 which works
on my display but I don't know if the size would vary on say an EGA
display.



Oh, and to all those people sending me mail about my previous posting
"re: Using Borland C++," Standard mode, not Real mode; Yes I've got
that now. At the time I posted that the only distinctions I had in my
mind were "The mode I use (386 enhanced)" and "Everything else". Kind of
like my counting system: one, two, three, many.
