Hi Sreenath,

Thanks for the reply.I went throgh the link sent by you and tried with the anchor property of a control.But the problem I faced is,When I place more than one control on the form and when the form is resized all the controls are over lapped.I have set the anchor property of the all the controls to top,bottom,right and left.How to overcome from overlapping of controls and reposition it.Please suggest me.

Thanks once again,

Hi ,

If you have many controls and also you can give more scope to r4esize the form then you have to Use the resize property of the form and changhe the size and location as in sync with the form.

This will do.
