Scroll panel across a Windows form programmatically

Question

I am having a problem while scrolling a panel across a window form.I added a panel to the form.then i set the Background image and the back ground image layout to stretch.
Then i added a timer to the form and wrote the following in the code behind

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.ComponentModel;

using System.Data;

using System.Drawing;

using System.Text;

using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace WindowsApplication23

{

public partial class Form1 : Form

{

public Form1()

{

InitializeComponent();

this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint, true);

this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.OptimizedDoubleBuffer, true);

}

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

panel1.Location = new Point(0, 30);

timer1.Interval =100;

timer1.Enabled = true;

timer1.Start();

}

private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

int newPoint = panel1.Location.X + 2;

panel1.Location = new Point(newPoint, 30);

if (panel1.Location.X > this.Width)

{

panel1.Dispose();

timer1.Stop();

MessageBox.Show("Ta ta");

return;

}

}

}

}


The problem is while the panel moves the scrolling is not smooth.Seems to have flickering,some sort of a difficulty in moving


Please do help me out
