Creating add-ins with visual studio, question about window size

[jasonmcleod]

I'm stumbling through visual studio 2008 attempting to build a very very simple add-in.  It's essentially an "about" page with a few links.  I have everything in place, links are working and images are loading fine. The questions I have area:

1. Can I specify the width/height of the window? The values i put in the properties window don't seem to be being honored.  Additionally, can I lock that size down?

2. Can I have the add-in launch as soon as explorer loads?

Last time I touched vb was version 6.  Since then I've been developing php/javascript

Any help would be most appreciated!

I am having the same issue.

We would like to have our Contents/Custom Task window(s) be dynamically changed or set in width to accommodate larger drop down fields.  If a user does not know to expand the window, then they will not have the ability to select any fields.  I have tried changing the window width, but the window always opens to the width that the application was closed with.

Any help would be appreciated!
