Hi,
    This should be a very basic question.  On a groupbox on the form, for example
TGroupBox *GroupBox1;

if I do

someVar = GroupBox1->Height;

I should get the value of the height of the goupbox as drawn on the form, correct?  This is confusing me because I'm upgrading a project that uses exactly this syntax.  The form height, width, top, and left are all set.  However, when I use the debugger, once I get to see that object it is showing all 0's for each of these properties.  I don't know if it was a problem with conversion or not.  Does anyone have any ideas on this?

I'm considering just copying the old component, pasting, deleting the old, and changing the new ones name.  If I do copy and paste, the component shows up proper.  Weird

Thankyou

According to what I've read, yes, that should work. Why the debugger chokes on it, I don't understand. ClientWidth and ClientHeigth should also show the same thing.

K,
    Let me dig into it and see what I come up with.  So far, the debugger is doing strange things unless I'm not using it properly (which is a possibility :) ).  

Hi,
     I have confirmed that ->Height and ->Width are indeed the sizes of the windows.  My problem is coming from a different location which I will make a new post for.
