fires only when made part of a control array.

MORE INFORMATIONSteps To Reproduce Behavior
- Create a new Standard EXE project.
- Add a UserControl to the project.
- Add the following code to the Resize event of the UserControl:
Private Sub UserControl_Resize()
MsgBox "Resize"
End Sub
- Add an instance of the UserControl to Form1. Note that the Resize event
triggers the first time.
- Select the instance of the UserControl and click Copy on the Edit Menu.
- Click Paste on the Edit menu. When asked if you want to make a
control array, click No.
NOTE: As long as you continue to copy and paste the control, the new
controls are added without the Resize event firing (if they are not part
of a control array).
- Paste the control, and choose Yes when asked to make a control array.
NOTE: Because the control is now part of a control array, the Resize
event triggers correctly when added to the form.
