    Why controls are fixed?

    On a form I downloaded, all controls are fixed. They can be moved and resized only programmatically. I couln't locate the property that is responsible for this.

    Any help!

    There is an option in Format menu of the VB IDE that Locks/unlocks the position of the controls on a Form. Open your form in design mode and select Format menu, see that Lock Controls would be selected, just un-select it.

    Or right click anywhere on the form and you will see the menu Lock Controls, just un-select it.
