As far as I know, Groupboxes only come in one shape, a rectangle. But
on one of my forms, it would be best if I could have a groupbox that's
shaped like this:
_______
| |
_________| |
| |
| |
|_______________|
So what should I do? Any suggestions on reshaping the Groupbox, or
melding two Groupboxes to create a convincing illusion?
TIA!

I would not call it a box... Don't use proportional fonts.

Set the control's Region property to a custom shaped region (for example
created from a GraphicsPath) and draw the border yourself (have a look at
the class ControlPaint).

Thanks for all the suggestions, I'm sure I'll find a suitable way of
doing this now.
