I use it for frames where I'm dynamically loading controls too, so that if
the number of controls added exceeds the size of the frame, I can implement
scrolling really easily as well.

Had not even thought of using it that way... Interesting.

If you're going to add a scrollbar for moving them, it's much easier if
they're all in one container.  That way you move the container to scroll
rather than each control.  Works really well if you want to add scrollbars
for when they shrink the form below the bounds of your controls.

I have noticed that some programmers draw a picture box on the form, then
place textboxes, labels, etc. inside the picture box.  What is the
advantage/disadvantage of doing this?

Thanks,
