Form Designer resize controls by itself.

Hi,

I have a problem with the Form Editor VS2008 in a C# Windows application.
Form Editor seems to change size of some controls to an arbitrary large
values by its own will.

I position, resize, dock and anchor controls in a Form Editor, run my
application and all works fine. But when I close the form and reopen it in
again in the VS2008 Form Editor some controls become resized to very large
values. If I position them correctly they will be OK until next time I will
reopen the form in the Editor.

This is in particular very intense on the second (third, etc ..) tabs of the
Tab Control, when I am using top, left, bottom anchoring and controls in
question are inside the Split Container.

Is it a way to get rid of that behavior?

Thanks,
Victor
