Default resizing columns with pixels

Have you looked at the methods PointsToScreenPixelsX and
PointsToScreenPixelsY of the Window object?

points are based on the standard font size the bigger the
column width the more (different sized letters) can fit
in. I do know that the relationship is definatley not
linear. I think I need to actually specify number of
pixels rather than converting into points

Any ideas?

Hi Andy;
MsgBox Columns(1).ColumnWidth ' Points

I want to be able to specify column widths in pixels
rather than points. I can call the function for column
widths in VBE but can't find an option to specify a


width

in pixels (even though this value is always shown when
manually resizing)

Help would be great,
Cheers
Andy
