    Sizing form

    Hi

    how can I resize my form borders in .NET (either VB or
    C#)?
    In one of my programs I want to extend the usual form
    size at one end (when the user clicks the "Details... "
    button), so I need the window to 'grow'.
    As I'm really new at .NET this is quite difficult for me.


    Thanks for any help

    Sam

      Sizing form

      If your using visual studios.net go to
      border Attribute | border Property

      -----------------------------------------------------------
      ---------------------

      Sets or retrieves the properties to draw around the object.

      Syntax

      HTML { border : sBorder }
      Scripting object.style.bo rder [ = sBorder ]

      Possible Values

      sBorder String that specifies or receives one or more of
      the following space-delimited values:width Any of the
      range of width values available to the borderWidth
      property.
      style Any of the range of style values available to the
      borderStyle property.
      color Any of the range of color values available to the
      borderColor property.


      The property is read/write. The property has a default
      value of medium none. The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
      attribute is not inherited.

      Expressions can be used in place of the preceding value
      (s), as of Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5. For more
      information, see About Dynamic Properties.

      Remarks

      The border property is a composite property that sets the
      width, style, and color values for all four sides of an
      object.

      You must specify a style when specifying a width or color;
      otherwise, the border does not render.

      All individual border properties not set by the composite
      border property are set to their default values. For
      example, the default value for width is medium.

      The setting border=thin is identical to border=thin none;
      the default value for the border color is the same as the
      text color if one is not initially set. So, not only does
      the property set width to thin, it also clears any style
      or color values previously set.

      Setting a border to zero or omitting the attribute causes
      no border to be displayed. Supplying the border attribute
      without a value defaults to a single border.

      As of Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5.5, this property
      applies to inline elements. With earlier versions of
      Internet Explorer, inline elements must have an absolute
      position or layout to use this property. Element layout is
      set by providing a value for the height property or the
      width property.

      If a color is not specified, the text color is used.

      For more information about supported colors, see the Color
      Table.

      Examples

      The following examples use the border attribute and the
      border property to specify the composite border properties.
      This example uses a call to an embedded (global) style
      sheet to modify the border attribute.

      Show Example

      <HEAD>
      <STYLE>
      .applyBorder { border:0.2cm groove orange }
      .removeBorder { border:none }
      </STYLE>
      </HEAD>
      <BODY>
      <TABLE BORDER>
      <TR>
      <TD onmouseover="th is.className='a pplyBorder'"
      onmouseout="thi s.className='re moveBorder'">
      <IMG src="sphere.jpg "></TD>
      </TR>
      </TABLE>
      Show Me
      This example uses inline scripting to modify the border
      property.

      <TD onmouseover="th is.style.border ='0.2cm groove pink'">
      Show Me
