Thanks for the information

First thing that I see is that you have 1000 iterations of DrawPanel. You have three nested loops, so you get the following logic: for each iteration of the outermost loop for each iteration of the next loop for each iteration of the inner loop DrawPanel end for end for end for BTW - you have declared an array with a fixed size of 60, so you will get an overflow. You would be much better off declaring this as List<mypanel> bar = new List<mypanel> and then using this instead. -- modified at 8:00 Friday 16th March, 2007 Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

This is not correct syntax. You'd have to write PaintEventArgs e = new PaintEventArgs(); // set up e's properties // ... OnPaint(e); but like the others suggested, this is really not the correct way of doing things. Just replace the call to OnPaint(...); with Invalidate(); and you're done.

Thanks...

Why all the try statements ? You need to step through the code to see what is going on.

However, it's not really going to work. To do this, you need when you create each Panel, pass it into the forms Controls collection, and it's often easier just to create Panels and find them from the Controls collection. foreach(Control c in Controls) { if (c is Panel) { } // OR Panel p = c as Panel; if (p != null) { } } Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++ Metal Musings - Rex and my new metal blog "I am working on a project that will convert a FORTRAN code to corresponding C++ code.I am not aware of FORTRAN syntax" ( spotted in the C++/CLI forum )

Sounds to me like you need to learn some C# before you try to write whatever it is you are trying to write. If you handle an event for a control, within your main class, then you have two incoming variables, like this protected void OnPaneResize(object sender, EventArgs ea) { } You can then do this: protected void OnPaneResize(object sender, EventArgs ea) { Control c = sender as Control; if (c != null) { c.Left = 5; // or whatever } } Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++ Metal Musings - Rex and my new metal blog "I am working on a project that will convert a FORTRAN code to corresponding C++ code.I am not aware of FORTRAN syntax" ( spotted in the C++/CLI forum )

Thanks. This really works...

Ok thanks

Thanks for the idea. It's very useful. But i have the problem to check the location of other control. Can you give a example or idea?

You really need to break it down further than that. Break it down in to smaller and smaller steps until you almost have the code you need to get this to work.
