When you change between Resize and

control’s appearance and behavior match.

For
columns, you can access the Border property with the
GetBorderStyle and SetBorderStyle methods.

Usage

In the painter

Select the control and set the value in the Properties view,
General tab.

Changing the Border setting between Resize and another border
affects the Resizeable option on the Position tab. To make another
border resizable, choose the border then reset Resizeable.

On Windows XP, to display the border of a text column with the XP
style (by default, a blue box), set the Border property to Lowered and
the BackgroundColor of the font to Window Background.

For examples of other ways to set properties, using Border as an
example, see What you can do
