Resize Tab control when windows form resizes

Hi

I have a windows form and with init I have a tab control.

How can I get the tab control to resize, Min/Max as the windows form is
resized?

Thanks

In the Form's resize event code block, insert code changing the tab control's
dimensions relative to the form's. Example:

Private Sub Form1_Resize(By Val sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles Me.Resize
TabControl1.Wid th = Me.Width - 20
TabControl1.Hei ght = Me.Height - 20
End Sub

You can use any arithmetic operator and any values within reason; just
depends on what your needs are.

Take a look at the Anchor and Dock properties or, if neither of
those do the job, add some code to the Form's Layout event,
as in

Private Sub Form1_Layout( ... ) handles Form1.Layout
With TabControl2
.Location = New Point( 8, 8 )
.Size = New Size( Me.ClientSize.W idth - 16 _
Me.ClientSize.H eight - 16 _
)
End With
End Sub

HTH,

Hi, I have the following problem: I have a .CFM web page and I have to populate, from VB, two textboxes on it. I was thinking using sendkeys (even if I don't like it too much) but when I open the web browser and navigate to the selected page, I cannot set the focus to the html part of the control (only the web control takes the focus) so I can't use sendkeys to populate the fields I need.

Hi, there! I want to set focus on a control, of which TabIndex is not the first, when a form is loaded. In the form's load event, I have used Control.Focus() but it doesn't not work. The focus is not on the control I set. The focus is always on the control of which TabIndex is 0. Thanks.

Hi, Is it possible to make a control bigger or maximize it also when the user maximizes the form? I have a calendar control on a form and I would like to automatically make it bigger when the form is maximized so the user can see more detail. I see there is only a height property for a form and no width propertly. The calendar control on the form has both.

Hi: I am trying to get access to the event after a window has been resized. The events I have been using SizeChanged and Resize all fire after any pixel size change. What I am trying to achieve is after the window has been dragged to a new size (or maximized/restored) then I redraw the images within the form. If I do it on Resize, then it tries to redraw as the form is being resized,
