>>>Hi,

>>>A while ago I have experimented a little with anchor property of text boxes and labels so that if a user increases the size of the window, these controls increase as well. At that time I didn't like the result. I wonder if anybody is using the anchor property for these controls and happy with the results?

>>Yes very happy with Anchor to use it on textboxes and labels Ii dont resize the box (make them wider or narrower )a wider textbox invites the user to input much more than allowed. Just leave the width of these objects according to the max length of input characters (take "W" as widest character. The height of the textboxes and labels should not be changed. Use anchor for textboxes and labels only to change the position on the form.

Hi,
I would not resize the height since it serves to nothing but to occupy space. incase you are not planning to resize your fontsizes also.

Koen
