   1. You can resize the control within its own code, but you might want to check   
   for the scalemode of the container it is in. See the Ambient.ScaleUnits   
   property. Normally the size and placement of a control is managed by the   
   container, not the control itself.   
   This will work in the usual Twips situation:   
      
   Private Sub UserControl_Click()   
       UserControl.Width = 1000   
       UserControl.Height = 1000   
   End Sub   
      
   2. User controls are very useful. I would not bother with actually building it   
   as an OCX; this gets into annoying problems with registration, binary   
   compatibility, and other such noise. Just add the user control source code   
   file(s) to any project where you need it.
