Hi

A new addition in the Dot net 2.0 Windows control is the splitter control. The splitter control is a combination of many controls with their dock settings. This control can save many steps in the development of a composite control. One of the more common tasks while designing a form is to use controls, which can share the vertical and horizontal space.

Earlier splitter control allowed the application to adjust the division of space separating sections of a container control like panel control. Now we can use the splitter control to eliminate these multiple combined steps.

There are several Properties provided by the splitter control so that we can modify the instance of the inner control. We can use the FixedPanel property to define if a panel is going to be fixed or not. If we make one of the panels fixed, then that panel will not resize when the instance of the splitter control resizes.

To control the direction and the starting location of the splitter bar we can use the Splitter distance and the orientation properties. We can also specify the minimum size of the panels with the help of Panel1MinSize and Panle2MinSize property.

Hope this helps
Thanks
