Form cut off when displayed in splitcontainer

[BrianP]

I have a form that is currently being displayed in a split container with panel 1 holding a treeview and panel2 holding the form. my code for this is here. This is when selecting a item from the treeview.

        Dim CurrentForm As New Form
        Select Case TreeView1.SelectedNode.Text
            Case Is = "Customer"
                CurrentForm = Customer
            Case Is = "Quote"
                CurrentForm = Quote
        End Select

        CurrentForm.FormBorderStyle = Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.None
        CurrentForm.ShowInTaskbar = False
        CurrentForm.IsMdiContainer = False
        CurrentForm.TopLevel = False
        CurrentForm.Visible = True
        CurrentForm.Anchor = CType((((System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles.Top Or System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles.Bottom) _
                    Or System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles.Left) _
                    Or System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles.Right), System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles)

        SplitContainer1.Panel2.Controls.Clear()
        SplitContainer1.Panel2.Controls.Add(CurrentForm)

When I view this in action however it cuts off about a quarter inch from the right of any form I use. Can anyone shed some light onto this for me?

Usually a form is used as the outer-most container for other controls. It's not really designed for what you are trying to do. Is there any reason why you can't use a Panel control, or a TabControl with the tab headers hidden?

Thank you for the reply Nuke. The biggest reason is so that I do not have to re-design the controls and risk destroying something. It works great for some forms but not all of them.

If you have functionality that you want to reuse on those forms then I would spend a little time and split it out into a couple of user controls, i.e. a customer user control and a quote user control. That would be the recommended way to do it and will certainly behave more consistently.

Alright Nuke,

Just for you I am experimenting with the user contol. So far it has been fairly painless to just copy over all the controls and then the code. It isn't cutting off the right side anymore but we will see how it ends up.
