Hi, IIRC you can make it invisible by setting some properties, say ForeColor=BackColor and Text=""; however the border area is still wasted. AFAIK you can't shrink it to just it contents; it that is what you want, why not just use a Panel? PS: I don't think you can have it with title but no border lines. :)

The quality and detail of your question reflects on the effectiveness of the help you are likely to get. Show formatted code inside PRE tags, and give clear symptoms when describing a problem.

That would result in the same functionality as a Panel control.

its better to use other control such as Panel Control or if still you want to do this then you can create your own control by inheriting the group box control but it will be like inventing the wheel. Best of Regards, SOFTDEV

I have a similar problem, and I can't use a panel, or really don't want to, because am using linq to gather all controls of a radiobutton type and linq does not find the controls in a panel, but it will find the controls in a groupbox. Any other ideas?

You can use css for the same. :)

.GroupPanel, .GroupPanel Legend
{
text-decoration: none;
border: 0;
}
