I have 3 listboxes on my form. Sometimes the items I add to the listboxes are cut off within the listbox since they are too long. In the case of that, I want all the listbox sizes to expand according to the length of the text. Once the size of the listboxes expands, I want the size of the form to expand to avoid any problems. How do I do this?
