For certain kinds of forms (I mean kinds by function, not so much as by a
specific Delphi type) you can put code in OnResize events that will adjust
layouts. For example, I've got an application where the main form just
contains a series of lists - when the form is resized, I just run about 10
lines of code that resize all the lists to accomodate the new form.
For other kinds of forms, though, this isn't always appropriate. With dialog
boxes you should try to always design for the least common denominator, which
these days is generally a 640x480 screen. If you have more information on a
dialog than will conveniently fit in this size, you can probably arrange it
logically into notebook pages, which will often make things easier on the
user.
