Stephen,

You may try out my FCSplit control. It was written on VB and for VB. And it's free:

  Hello.
  I am looking for a control or way of having a split screen (window shade) type of form. So that I can have
  a master/detail look and feel. The user would see the master part of the split and when they lifted up
  the "split" they would see the detail information below.

  I think that the approach is to use two forms and use the mouse events to handle the split....

  Any ideas or real (free) OCX's?
