Vertical or horizontal scroll bar or split the form into several smaller
forms.

I think that depends of the resolution of your screen...try on a computer
with larger screen.

I'm in 1152/864 and the max size of my forms can be 1164/876...

Yes, i noticed it but it is realy stupid if a resolution influence so
strong on size of form. There must a way to get big form, much bigger
than screen resolution

Type in the size you want in the properties window?

Although interestingly, there does still seem to be a limit. My screen
is 1600 pixels wide and the maximum width of form I can create is 2892
pixels.

Thats much better. When i have 800x600 i can make bigges form 812x612.
When i have 1024x768, biggest form is 1036x780. Yes, i write 1200x1200
on property window in designer and it automaticly make 1036x780. Now, i
can make it bigger by a resize in runtime, but only as a user by mouse,
but when i try to resize it via code it automaticly make it
1036x780!!!! ..... what is goin on here ????

The answer is that it will not let you create a form that is larger
than the resolution of your screen. I went through this same problem
with my app. I had to change the screen to the resolution that it
would be run at.

I, too, feel that this is a silly limitation.

So, you are going to force your users to buy monitors large enough to view your
form?

Excellent marketing strategy!
Good luck with your project,

I have just run into a problem where I have a page that posts back to itself to execute code, except when the page does the post back it somehow executes code that is in our home page for the site. The only reason I know that is happening is because I keep track of the pages executed by the user to see how they have traversed the site. Has anyone every seen anything like this before?
