I have a Windows Forms VB.NET application, with a panel that contains a few other controls.
I set the panel's AutoScroll property to True, and that seems to appropriately apply the scroll bars when they are needed. The issue is that a user must scroll all the way to the right to access the vertical scroll bar. Is there a way to always show the vertical scrollbar no matter where the user is scrolled horizontally?
EDIT
I guess the main problem I have here is that I have a DataGridView inside of a panel. I want the panel to do the vertical scrolling, and not the DataGridView. Why is it when I turn off vertical scrollbars on the datagridview and have autoscroll on the panel, a vertical scroll bar is never shown?
You could add a VScrollBar on the right side of the panel and set code behind to move the panel scroll up and down.
or
A better option may be to switch your panel to a FlowLayoutPanel which provides quite a bit of control over the scroll handles both vertical and horizontal.
Check out MSDN and see how to use all of the properties of the FLP:

I have a program that generates textboxes in a Panel called "PayeGrid". The panel also contains a TableLayoutPanel for displaying Headers for each row of textboxes. See the image below:
Layout
When running the program, I can scroll horizontally using PayeGrid scroll bars and the Headers also scroll along,as intended, because they are contained within PayeGrid:
Horizontal Scroll
However, when I scroll vertically, the headers also scroll down and disappear from view.
Vertical Scroll
How can I freeze the TableLayoutPanel when scrolling vertically?
instead of Using Panel and Table Layout Try Using DataGridView ..that may provide freezed header and Scroll its Content Only..

In VB.Net (VS2012) I have a Panel with autoscroll set to true. I have labels and grids inside the panel. The vertical scroll bar shows up as soon as the program is run (because the objects don't fit vertically). However, when I shrink the form and the grids and labels no longer fit horizontally, the horizontal scroll bar never appears in the panel.
I event tried setting HorizontalScroll.Visible = True
but this didn't help.
Why would the Horizontal bar not show up when it is needed?
I have a set of controls inside of a Panel and set the AutoScroll property of the panel to True so I get the Vertical ScrollBar but when I slide the bar is not smooth and if some of the upper controls inside the panel have the focus the bar return to the top.
I read some about and found a solution on
smooth scroll with autoscroll
Which work Ok but uses a lot of resources, I see it on Windows Task Manager, one of the processors goes about 60%, so I think is something wrong with this.
There's another way to met the same goal?
I tried to put my own VerticalScrollBar unsuccessfully. :(
When user clicks on the scroll bar arrow, the content shifts very slow(horizontal offset changes on 16). How can I increase the speed of shifting when I click on arrows?
(SmallChange doesn't work)
Unfortunately, it's quite hard-coded in the scroll viewer.
The only way I know of, is to make a new panel based on the panel that you want to use in the scroll viewer, and implement IScrollInfo for it.
Then, setting this panel as the content of the scroll viewer and setting CanContentScroll to true.
StackPanel implements IScrollInfo but other panels do not.
Is it possible to change the width of a scroll bar on a form. This app is for a touch screen and it is a bit too narrow.
This is a Windows Forms application? I was able to make a very fat and thick scrollbar by adjusting the "Width" property of my scroll bar control.
Is your scroll bar something you have programmatic access to (i.e. it is a control you added to the form)?
The width of the scrollbars is controlled by Windows. You can adjust the scrollbar width in Display Properties and it will affect all windows on the terminal.
