MyForm frm = new MyForm(); frm.Show(); Stateless wrote: Is case of resize form1 ,when a form1 is loaded textbox size is equal to form1 size & when i hide the status bar this resize statement is work but at loaded time its not work what is reasion behind it? Why don't you just use the Dock[^] property on the text box to get it to fill the window by setting it to DockStyle.Fill. Then you don't have to worry about that because it will resize itself automatically.
