Dialog Box Units

B

Bill Le May

We want to use VBA in Word to design prototypes for dialogs. VB licenses
ain't cheap - programming has them and we don't. In our VVBA-based design
we want to adhere as much as possible to the Windows Design Standard, which
specifies dimensions for controls and layout distances in DLUs = Dialog Box
Units. I've found discussions here of twips and points and pixels, but
nothing definitive about dialog box units. I know that pixels versus DLUs
can vary if the user modifies his Windows appearance, but what about plain
out-of-the-box Windows XP?

Thanks,

Bill
