Only by making the bottom of the controls that grow extend down past the tops of
the controls you don't want to move.

I think you can get that effect if you make the CanGrow
controls tall enough so that its bottom is below the top of
the lowest control you don't want to bo moved. Be sure to
set the cangrow control's CanShrink property to Yes so the
extra height doesn't look wierd when it didn't need to grow.


If you have multiple can grow controls, one above another,
then you can't do it because overlaping controls won't be
moved. If they're side by side, you're ok.
