I am a rookie with a rookie question. I am trying to size a form and I am
not having any luck. The form is for a user login and I have removed all the
unwanted attributes with the properties window. Somehow after doing this I
cannot resize the form. I tried changing various properties of the form to
no avail. Every time I switch to form view the form is back to its oversized
self.

I appreciate any help.

There are two sizes. The size of the form and the size of the window. Turn
AutoSize on and then CLOSE the form and then reopen it. The window will
automatically be made the same size as the form. This does not occur when you
go from design view to normal view. If you change the size of the form sections
in design view you have to close and reopen to see the new size reflected.
 
That worked. Thank you!!
