you should use Anchors on the Panel Too, Set them to RIGHT | LEFT | TOP | BOTTOM for a all direction resizing with the container..

if the pannel is nested in another panel, notice that the container should have the same Anchors too...

splitmain.Panel2.Anchor = Anchor.Left | Anchor.Right | Anchor.Top | Anchor.Bottom;

play with Anchors till you get the hang of it!

you can watch this movie to get little bit more familiar: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oO_zbWVklS8
