Thank you.

I've read that guideline many times.
But that's only guideline.
I hope to discuss or see others' experience.
Just like I'll post my coding question in the Delphi newsgroup
though there is already a delphi help system. :-)


I wish MS would add:
If a control in an area has scroll bars then that area must
be sizable in some way by the user. Usually by making the form
that contains it resizeable and stretching controls that
can contain scrollbars to fit.

So annoying to have small grids or list boxes that contain
lots of items but only able to see so few at a time
in a lot of MS dialogs.
