An integer or long whose value is the number of PowerBuilder units you want to convert to pixels |

Return value
Integer or long.
Returns the converted value if it succeeds and -1 if an error occurs. If any argument's value is null, UnitsToPixels returns null.
If the value of the first argument is an integer type, then the return value is an integer type; if the value of the first argument is a long type, then the return value is a long type; if the value of the first argument is a numeric value, then the return value is a long type by default.
Examples
These statements convert 350 vertical PowerBuilder units to vertical pixels and set value equal to the converted value:
long Value Value = UnitsToPixels(350, YUnitsToPixels!)
