How do you resize the sidebar in Vista

[DarkCyber]

I have two pc's running Vista Home Premium and on one of them I was able (don't remember how) to get the sidebar to where I can click and drag to resize it. On the other, I cannot find anyway to do this.

Does anyone know how I can resize the sidebar...make it wider...it is to small right now at my high resolution.

Thanks!

I've never known the Sidebar to be resizable, but that could be just me, who knows. If the Sidebar itself it "too small" why not try dragging the Gadgets directly to the Desktop - by doing so, they actually become larger and they still end up being just as useful. When I've run Vista in the past I put the Gadgets directly on the Desktop and disable the Sidebar's appearance. Once they're on the Desktop, there's simply no reason to keep the Sidebar itself visible.

Having said that, if you still wish to resize it, this utility might come in handy, but I can't speak for actually using it personally:

Give it a shot and see what it can do...
