This article will show you some simple techniques to add flicker-free form resizing of a sizable form, when there is a minimum size limit controlled by the form's Resize event, and the user tries to change the size. Normally, this flicker makes some people wonder if the program is buggy. This article has also grown since its first release. Additional enhancements include simple API calls to make the resizing even smoother, and tops it off with a beginner's introduction to Call-Back functions, where one can intercept the Windows Message Processor (WndProc) for their form and force the form not to resize below specified dimensions.
