Can't display MonthCalendar in foreground

[=?Utf-8?B?UmF5IE1pdGNoZWxs?=]

Hello,

I have a typical window form with all the standard buttons, group boxes,
etc. on it. I am trying to also display a MonthCalendar control on it too
but I simply can't get the MonthCalendar control to completely display in the
foreground. Portions of it always get hidden behind other controls. I've
tried right-clicking on it during development and choosing "Bring to Front"
as well as right-clicking on the controls obscuring it and choosing "Send to
Back", all to no avail. The main form itself actually obscures part of it.
I've also tried invalidating it during run-time too but that didn't work
either. I've occasionally run into this issue before with other contols but
have never come up with a good solution. Any suggestions? VS2005 on WinXP.

Thanks,
Ray

A concise-but-complete code sample would go a long way here.

It's not even clear to me why you have overlapping controls in the first
place, but describing the "main form" as obscuring the control is really
hard to understand. Seeing the code that actually results in this
behavior would really help.
