actually what I want to do is make the pushbutton bigger when the
different translation is picked from my language menu
I am a little confused on the stuff you gave below

Is it possible to make it so that the button's size changes when
the width of the text that is in it changes?
For example I have a combobox with text in it and the text when
selected changes what the text in the button is
Yes.
First, determine the width of the text...
Dim p As New Picture(1, 1, 32)
Dim g As Graphics = p.Graphics
g.TextFont = whatever your font is
g.TextSize = whatever your font size is
your text width in pixels = g.StringWidth("whatever your text is")
Then, you have to tack on some extra to take into account the width
of the sides of the control. I haven't tried a combo box, but I
would guess add 15 pixels (you may have to experiment with that).
