Form resize alse requeries?

I never noticed this before but looking at a continuous bound form,
when I resize it it seems to also requery the recordsource. Is that
possible or am I imagining it? I notice the rows flashing as if they're
being refreshed when sizing the form horizontally.

I have a form with about two dozen controls and I want to space and
size them based on the screen width.

Currently using something looking like:

Dim sWid as Long
sWid = Me.InsideWIdth

Me.ControlNameOne.Left = sWid - 500
Me.ControlNameTwo.Left = sWid - 800
etc...

....but is there a better way to do this that doesn't involve all that
number crunching for each nudge of the mouse?

Any help is appreciated.
