Hi Fred,
Take a look at this MSKB article:
Q193078 - BUG: Scrollable Form Displays Improperly on Resize or Scroll
>The Maximum form size I use is 800X600. One customer has a PC in 640X480. I said no problem if they don't mind scrollbars. However, I get funkiness. I have scrollbars = 3 in my form's base class.
>
>If I just resize the form while it is running, the scrollbars do not appear but the functionality is there. The same if I resize the form in the init of the form, even if it is just enough to activate the scrollbars.
>
>Ideas?
