Scrolling panel

[Nathan]

Hi,

I have a panel on a form that contains a number of controls, so many that
the panel has a vertical scrollbar in order to view all of them. When the
form first loads, the panel's scrollbar automatically scrolls to about the
middle rather than staying at the top. Also, when I click on one of the
controls, a dialog box appears to allow me to edit it's information. When I
click OK on the dialog box, the information on the control is changed, and
the panel's scrollbar once again scrolls to the middle. This last scenario
only happens once, on the first control I click. After that everything
works as it should. Does anyone have any idea what's going on, or what
event is firing to cause the panel to scroll automatically sometimes?

Thanks,
Nathan

Hi,

Make sure the panels autoscrollpostion, and autoscrollmargin are set
to 0,0

Thanks Ken. The properties are set correctly in the designer, and I've also
tried the following code:

Me.pnlPCard.AutoScrollMargin = New Size(0, 0)
Me.pnlPCard.AutoScrollPosition = New Point(0, 0)

I've tried this at the beginning and end of my form_load subroutine as well
as in the designer generated code. Still getting the strange behavior. The
controls are all added at design time, if that makes a difference.

Thanks,
Nathan
