Hi,

Rather than using Border, you should place the WindowsFormHost in the Grid Control which will automatically resize with the window. Also if you are placing the Control in a row then try to keep the Height of that RowDefinition to "*"

For example in your code its Row no 4.

C#

<grid grid.row="4" grid.columnspan="1" style="{StaticResource bStyle}">
     <windowsformshost horizontalalignment="Stretch" name="FrmHostEmpAtt" verticalalignment="Stretch" grid.columnspan="1" focusable="False" ismanipulationenabled="False" padding="2" cliptobounds="True">
                    <rv:reportviewer x:name="RptEmpAttViwer" xmlns:x="#unknown" xmlns:rv="#unknown" />
     </windowsformshost>
</grid>

Regards,
Darshan.
