form size in design view

Eva
Hi,

i have placed code on my form load event to maximise the
form. what i want to know is when im working in design
view is there a way to display the actual size of the
form??

i ask this because i want to be able to clealy see where i
place my controls on the form and how they will actually
be displayed when the application is loaded.

thx

You mean like the "Test" menu option that was in VS v6 tahts suddenely
disappeared up its own spinkter like alot of other functionality from the
designer in v6-> v7.x

Yet more comedy gold from the Visual Studio team.
