Issues with GetSystemMetrics

[BrettM]

Hi,

I have been using the GetSystemMetrics API successfully for some time to force the window dimensioning of an application in XP. Now a user is attempting to use the app on a Vista system and it appears that the API is not reading the metrics correctly. Consequently those rotten scroll bars appear which detract from the window display.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Regards Brett
