How Can a Textbox Be Dynamically Resized with the Form?

[CodeMonkey]

I searched Google and could not find a solution for this.

I have a form with a text box and I want to make it so that when I resize the form while the application is running the text box would get resized as well and be "relative" to the size of the form.

Any help please?

Obviously this is Windows (not Xterm)? Less obviously - what language are you coding in?

CodeMonkey, I think what you want to do is set the Anchor property of your text field. This is a property of all Controls:

Assuming this is C#, I think you want to say
yourtextbox.Anchor = (AnchorStyles.Top | AnchorStyles.Left | AnchorStyles.Right);

Coin, thanks, that worked. :-)
