+## To make controls the same width, height, or size
+
+You can resize a group of controls based on the size of the dominant control.
+
+1. [Select the controls](../windows/selecting-multiple-controls.md) you want to resize.
+
+   The control selected first in the series is the dominant control. The final size of the controls in the group depends on the size of the dominant control. For more information on selecting the dominant control, see [Specifying a Dominant Control](../windows/specifying-the-dominant-control.md).
+
+1. From the **Format** menu, choose **Make Same Size**, then choose one of the following commands:
+
+   - **Both**
+
+   - **Height**
+
+   - **Width**
+
+## To set the size of the combo box and its drop-down list
+
+You can size a combo box when you add it to the dialog box. You can also specify the size of the drop-down list box. For more information, see [Adding Values to a Combo Box Control](../windows/adding-values-to-a-combo-box-control.md).
+
+### To size a combo box
+
+1. Select the combo-box control in your dialog box.
+
+   Initially, only the right and left sizing handles are active.
+
+1. Use the sizing handles to set the width of the combo box.
+
+You can also set the vertical size of the drop-down portion of the combo box.
+
+### To set the size of the combo box drop-down list
+
+1. Select the drop-down arrow button at the right of the combo box.
+
+   ![Arrow on a combo box in an MFC project](../mfc/media/vccomboboxarrow.gif "vcComboBoxArrow")
+
+   The outline of the control changes to show the size of the combo box with the drop-down list area extended.
+
+1. Use the lower sizing handle to change the initial size of the drop-down list area.
+
+   ![Combo-box sizing in an MFC project](../mfc/media/vccomboboxsizing.gif "vcComboBoxSizing")
+
+1. Select the drop-down arrow again to close the drop-down list portion of the combo box.
+
+## To set the width of a horizontal scroll bar and make it appear
+
+When you add a list box with a horizontal scroll bar to a dialog box using MFC classes, the scroll bar won't automatically appear in your application.
+
+Set a maximum width for the widest element by calling [CListBox::SetHorizontalExtent](../mfc/reference/clistbox-class.md#sethorizontalextent) in your code.
