Hi All,

I am adding a string value to listbox control. I need to set the width of listbox in runtime base on how many pixels string need it to display it within listbox. Idea is to set a width of listbox exactly the number of pixels required by string value. So, I can have perfect width each time base on string value.
Any idea please help.

Thanks,

Asif.

You can use the Graphics.MeasureString to get the width of a text string in a given font. There will be some 'excess' pixels needed for the sides of the listbox control itself.
