Open dialog too big for screen- CE5.0, vb.net, CF

[anbeyon]

Hi I am hoping someone might be able to help me.

I am developing and application in vb.net and need to use the Open and
Save dialogs. The problem I have is that the dialog is too wide for
the screen.

I am running windows CE with a 32x240 display. When you show the Open
or save dialog the right hand side is off screen and so you can't see
the OK button etc...

Does any one know if it possible to change the size of the dialogs or
do have to resort to writitng my own ?

Thanks

Anbeyon

If you're the OEM creating the CE image, then you can alter the source code
for those dialogs, otherwise you'll have to roll your own.

Thanks Chris

I'm new to some of this. We will be using Platform builder to create
our own CE image. Are you able to give me some pointers as to where I
start to look in platform builder to find that ?

Also - can the dialogs be customised in the emulator ?

Thanks again
