    I have created a web server control that contains a textbox and two image buttons.  The images are a fixed size (in pixels).  I would like to have the textbox fill the entire controls width minus the size of the images.  This is not a problem if the unit type passed in is not a percentage; however, I cannot figure out how to set the width of my textbox when a percentage is passed to the control.

     For example, if each image is 20 pixels wide and the width property is set to 100%, how do I set my textbox width to 100% - 40 pixels.

     Any help would be great.

    Since it is a custom control you have to create a property for that width to have access to it on the front side.  Like this:

     

        Public Property TextBoxWidth() As Drawing.Size
        Get
            Return TextBox1.Size
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As Drawing.Size)
            TextBox1.Size = value
        End Set
    End Property
