Early problems with VB.NET

I am new to VB.NET and today tried it for the first time. What frustrates me already, is that I can't maximize a form during design time and that the horisontal scrollbar does not work with the RichTextbox (not even the Forced Horizontal Scrollbar). Can somebody help me out here so that I can have a positive start with VB.NET?

Setting WindowState to Maximise works fine

forcedHorizontal on RTB also works fine if you set WordWrap to false

Thanks.
Another question: If I increase the zoomfactor at runtime. only the font size gets bigger; it's not zooming in like in a word processor(?)

According to Cander, setting WindowState to Maximise works fine. But is does not work in DESIGN time. In VB 6 I can maximize the form which I'm designing, but not in VB.NET. Or am I missing something?

Change size property of the form in Properties Explorer to what you wish .

Keep changing the value of each of width and height till you get the last possible value . I use width =1030 , Height = 730 , that's based on my screen resolution which is 1024 X 768 .

Look at this thread, it may help you move and maximize your form at design time.
