Problem with resizing control

I have a FoxPro 9 application that has different controls on several
tabs. On one tab, I have a Treeview control. I want the control to
resize itself when the form is resized. When you are on the tab with
the Treeview control and resize the form, the treeview control resizes
itself just fine.

However, if you go to another tab and then come back, the treeview
control goes back to its original size. Actually, it starts off at
the correct size, then when all the controls on the tab are finished
loading, it resizes itself back to the original size. I have tried
tracing through the code, and there is nothing in the code which is
making it go back to the original size.

Any ideas how to correct this?

Well, there must be some code changing it, or maybe you're adding the
Treeview to the page when it's displayed?

You're right, there must be something in the code, but I sure can't
find it. I searched the code for a statement changing the Height of
the control (other than the one in the resize event) and I stepped
through the code. No luck.

I was able to solve the problem, though, by putting a statement in the
resize event of the control that checks to make sure it is the right
height. If it isn't, it changes it to the right height.

I finally did stumble on the problem. The Anchor property was set to
not permit resizing, which was automatically changing the TreeView
control back to its original size.

See, I knew there had to be something. ;) Glad you've got it under control
now.
