Hi,

You will either have to reset the position of your form in the OnMove event
Or simply take make the form BorderStyle NONE and the control box false.

Hope this helps.

Remove the Border by setting the border style to none

From my FAQ:

Based on an implementation written by Tom Spink.

The code below defines a base class that provides a 'Moveable' property.
By inheriting from this class and setting the 'Moveable' property to
'False', the user will be prevented from moving then form:

\\\
Imports System.ComponentModel
Imports System.Windows.Forms

Public Class MoveableForm
Inherits Form

Private Const WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN As Int32 = &HA1
Private Const WM_SYSCOMMAND As Int32 = &H112

Private Const HTCAPTION As Int32 = &H2

Private Const SC_MOVE As Int32 = &HF010

Private m_Moveable As Boolean

Public Sub New()
MyBase.New()
Me.Moveable = True
End Sub

< _
Category("Behavior"), _
Description("Allows the form to be moved.") _
_

Public Property Moveable() As Boolean
Get
Return m_Moveable
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As Boolean)
m_Moveable = Value
End Set
End Property

Protected Overrides Sub WndProc(ByRef m As Message)
If Not m_Moveable Then
If _
m.Msg = WM_SYSCOMMAND And _
m.WParam.ToInt32() = SC_MOVE _
OrElse _
m.Msg = WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN And _
m.WParam.ToInt32() = HTCAPTION _
Then
Return
End If
End If
MyBase.WndProc(m)
End Sub
End Class
