Hi Andy,
I think your understanding of out of bounds to change must be the comment
of InitializeCompo nent method:
" Required method for Designer support - do not modify
the contents of this method with the code editor."
This comment means that Microsoft suggests that you do not modify this code
section, but any changes to it will still take effect.
InitializeCompo nent method is created by the VS.NET designer and it is
associated with(reflect) the designer, so Microsoft suggests that you
change your control in the designer not in the code.(It is more safe and
convient at most time.)
For your problem, you also can get it down in the designer, but I think it
is more convinent to change the order of 2 sentences.
Does this answer your question?
Best regards,
Jeffrey Tan

| Tom/Jeffrey -
|
| Thanks both solutions seem to work.
|
| Jeffrey - With regards to your suggestion, the fix is obviously applied to
| the InitializeCompo nent method, which as I understood it was out of bounds
| for changes, but it appears that this change has been retained; what
changes
| get kept and what get lost?!?
|
| Regards
