More Info

of Pixels or twips

This converts pixels to twips, if you get the rect of a window it's in pixels, to make your form that size you need to convert the pixels to twips.

As someone pointed out in one of my other submisions, it might be a little faster to take away the function and just use the insides where needed but i find the function saves some typing and makes the code easier to read.
