>>By the way before asking the question I tried modifying BorderStyle but I got weird results. I got those weird results by double-clicking in the border style property directly instead of selecting at the upper combobox part of the properties screen. When selecting from the upper combo-box no problems but when double-clicking in the properties directly I got weird characters appearing on top of my form.

You are right.
