C#: making a form non-resizable

In order to make a form non-resizable I have set MaximumSize and MinimumSize to the same value.

The problem I have is that when the user points to the border of the form, the mouse pointer changes so that it look as though the form is resizable. Is is possible for this not to happen?

If you desire to set this in designer under Appearance there is a field to set FormBorderStyle this can be changed to something that starts out with Fixed*.

"Set Form.FormBorderStyle to something else than Sizable" is not enough, need to set MaximizeBox = False, or user can change form size by maximum it

[...] FormBorderStyle.FixedDialog border style changes the border of the form to that of a dialog box and prevents the form from being resized. [...]

to make a form not resizable just change the property: FormBorderStyle to anything but not Resizable.

this.FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.FixedSingle;
