Scale Width and ScaleHeight

[Sam]

Hello

Does anyone have an alternative to convert a panel's width and height in
pixels to Inches other than assuming that there are 96 pixels per inch and
then Width/96 Height/96? I also need to track down distance in the mouse
move event in inch. Thanks in advance for all suggestions

Hi Ken

I tried that on my computer and 96 is what returned. Having to convert the
width of my panel and distance move by the the mouse extensively can result
2 or 3 pixels different. I did not have the same problem with VB6
