Randy,

_Hi. I am building an app with a small grid. I wanted to blow up the grid to full-screen to see more... My problem: The blown-up grid is behind the objects in the form (they show through).I need a way to bring the grid to the front and make the background opaque._

When I'm using a sizable grid, I put it inside a container. The grid container also has a couple of command buttons that are designed to simulate the windows-standard min/resize/max buttons.
The grid container is designed this way to give the user a standardized interface for controlling the grid size. Also, all the code used to control the sizing of the grid in encapsulated by the container.

Other controls that share space with the grid on the form go into another container,
which allows me to easily control sizing, positioning and visibility of the seperate sets of controls.
I put methods that facilitate interaction between the controls in the parent container to simplify
the calls between the controls:
