How to display a resize handle in the bottom right corner of a form

JB
Hi All,

I'd like to display a "resize handle" in the bottom right corner of a
form like in the windows explorer for instance (the 3 diagonal lines
in the corner).
Can anybody tell me how to do that?

Thanks

Set the form's SizeGripStyle property to "Show". I'm not sure, but I think
certain settings for the FormBorderStyle may override this.

You're right. For example, FormBorderStyle of FixedSingle will not
show the icon even withthe SizeGripStyle set to Show.
