For example, the .Net CF Listview does not have the AutoResize method on a column. This can be frustrating as to do this manually would be pretty intensive and just un-necessary. There is a solution though, the functionality is still there, it's just hidden away.
If you set the width of the column to be -1, it will resize the column to be the width of the longest item in that column. If you set the width of the column to be -2, it will resize the column to the width of the column heading text.
This is exactly the same as using listView.Columns(0).AutoResize(ColumnHeaderAutoResizeStyle.ColumnContent) and listView.Columns(0).AutoResize(ColumnHeaderAutoResizeStyle.HeaderSize) on the full .Net framework.
