    ' Display the form with no grip since form is not resizable.

    myForm.MinimizeBox = False
    myForm.MaximizeBox = False
    myForm.ShowDialog()
End Sub

        private void ShowMyDialogBox()
        {
            Form myForm = new Form();
            myForm.Text = "My Form";
            myForm.SetBounds(20,20,300,300);
            myForm.FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.FixedDialog;
            
            // Display the form with no grip since form is not resizable.
            myForm.SizeGripStyle = SizeGripStyle.Hide;

        }
