How to increase the height of VB.Net form in VS 2005 ?

I am adding new controls to the form..
Its Membership Enrollment Form
I need to add plenty of controls on 1 Page.
how to increase the height ?
Click on the form and stretch it at the corners or set the size in properties.
If you know the increment of the height, do this:
Form1.Size=New Point(Form1.Width, Form1.Height + HeightIncrement)
Form1.Size=New Point(Form1.Width, Form1.Height + HeightIncrement)

1) I am on design mode, i need to controls from design. I really dont want to write any code .. as because .. we are not increasing the size of the form on run time. Size of the form will decided before compiling the code.
2) i need to have vertical scroll bar on right hand side of the form
Ah,at design time, just point your mouse at the lower right corner of the form and drag it down to get bigger.
Or as @tommyBoy pointed out, change the Size property on the form's property list.

At Design Time ...! I am not able to exceed the Form Size limit
Width : 1000
Height : 780
Do you have MaximumSize property set to (1004, 780)? if so, change it to (0,0).
ASKER
Maximum Size - 0,0
Minimum Size - 0,0
Size :- 1004, 780 ..!
More than this, even if use drag on either side of the Form .. its not changing ..!

I believe you hit the maximum ALLOWED height of your machine, which is your display setting.

You may be right ..!
How to change the setting ..
Some thing in Visual Studio Environment setting properties ..!

You can always add your controls to a Panel inside your form and set AutoScroll to True in the properties. This will produce a scroll bar for any controls that do not fit.

Thanks, I have set the property -to True ..
Still the main issue of setting the Form Property is not able to succeed ..!
ASKER
I have attached the screen shot of Form 1
What ever controls, i have added to the Form 1 .. I need to add similar set of controls in the Form 2 with one common submit button.
If i am keeping two forms ..! Technically, i need to maintain the Visible of both forms and also i will face the issue of transfering the values from one FORM to another FORM ..!
It is tedious for programmer and also end user

This is actually a serious issue .. not only for end user .. but also for me ..!
Since we need to store the data on single click event .. which has more than 50 Values..!
Imagine, if we split 25 values from Page 1 and 25 Values on Page 2 ..! There can be some issue arises while proceeding for storing the data ..!
Now that you already resolved the issue in other thread, you can probably go ahead to close this question.

In other thread, i discussed about Vertical Scroll bar
Yes, by using scrollbar, you can place more controls on the form. You or end users just need to scroll up/down or left/right to see all the fields on the form.
Does this technique resolve your problem?

I have to follow different approach .. for handling many controls on one Form
What different approach are you taking? Would you mind sharing with rest of us? I do not see any suggestions in the link of your earlier post.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Initial Posting of this question is .. I am not able to increase the size of the Form.
Ans should be .. it is possible or not ?
On my research, i realized that we cannot increase the size of the Form .. On changing the resolution will impact the Application when it goes for deploying on User's Machine
