autosize forms at different resolutions

[Ultrawhack]

Hi,

Maybe vb.net has an easy answer to this. How can I ensure that my form/controls all autoresize no matter what the end users screen resolutions ?

Thanks !

Any application where the standard size of a form is greater than 800 x 600 is a badly designed application. If you design an application where the forms look correct on an 800 x 600 screen then you will be doning fine. The likelihood of someon running a lower resolution than that is pretty slim and, as has been said, the majority will be using higher. Frankly, if you require your form to be larger than 800 x 600 in order to comfortably fit all your controls on it then I don't want to use your form because it will not be user-friendly as a result. That would be simplt too many controls to have on-screen at once. If that's what you currently have then think about TabControls, task panes or using several dialogues.
