I am new to .NET, although have worked with VB and VBA in the past. Just changed jobs, and am trying to get my head around the .NET Framework...
Anyway, I need to create a form with the look and feel of the Options Box. Specifically, I would like to have those divider lines that separate sections. For an example using Studio 2003, open Tools -> Options -> Environment -> General. See those lines that separate Settings and Docked Tool Window Behavior? I want to do a similar thing on my form - logically separate grouped data without using a full frame (er...I mean...GroupBox).
What is the best approach? I could use a GroupBox with a height of 1, but then I have to separate the label from the line. I don't really want to resort to coding some GDI+ object, because at this point the learning curve is too great for a silly little line. (Not that I don't want to learn it, I just don't think I should spend all of that time right now... ya know?)
HELP!
Thank you for your time.
Mike.
