My custom compose form have Message control on the left side & my
activex control on the right side (alongwith To, CC on the upper
part). I have set "Resize with layout" property of Message control to
unchecked. I want to resize my activex control to the width of
inspector. So I tried to set "Resize with layout" property of my
activex control to checked, but that didn't work. I have also tried
code snippet from MS site, but it also failed. Code snippet for office
2007 is as follows -

Dim olkCtrl As Outlook.OlkControl
olkCtrl =
CurrentInsp.ModifiedFormPages("Message").Controls("IE1")
olkCtrl.EnableAutoLayout = True
olkCtrl.HorizontalLayout =
Outlook.OlHorizontalLayout.olHorizontalLayoutGrow
olkCtrl.VerticalLayout =
Outlook.OlVerticalLayout.olVerticalLayoutGrow

My aim is, my compose mail's Message control is of fixed size & I want
to resize my activex control viz. IE1 to the height & width of form. I
am using VSTO/ vb 2005 for office 2003 & 2007.

I also tried the following code snippet in outlook 2003 with sp3 and
it work fine but for outlook 2007,my message control shrink down.

sub item_Write
Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("Message").IE1.LayoutFlags = 68
end sub


Please help me.

Thanks in advance
