>>I'm not laughing because I have used those properties as well. I did not find this as "automatic" as I thought it would be. I could still resize the form to less than the MinHeight/MinWidth than what I specified. I had to resort to the code Gérald Santerre suggested in his response.

Gérald's solution will bypass the user resizing a window too small and revert the size back to a minimum. But if you are looking to revert the window size back to its last acceptable size, you would have to add 2 form properties and store the last acceptable dimensions in them. Then revert the form back to those values if the use resizes too small. I prefer reverting back to the minimum size to "minimize" user frustration. Although there are some user's I would like to mess with -- like make an Icon relocate itself when they position the mouse cursor over it so they can never click on it or drag it.

Did I miss your question?
