Hello everybody,

A couple of years ago I wrote a program in VB6. Using the designer I could
align my labels to the right. When the text of the labels would change, the
autosize feature would kick in and resize the lables to the left.
But with vb.net it isn't possible anymore to get the labels aligned right
using Format -> Align -> Right and stay like that at runtime.
I tried using the anchor, docking and tablelayout panel, but none of these
things work.
Does somebody know a better solution?

Hi,

You will have to align the labels with code in the labels text
changed event.

Thanks, I was already afraid that would be the answer.

Are you sure of that, I use the Anchor with success in this kind of
operations.

There should be something that I oversee in this question?

Hi,

The anchor property only moves the control when the form is resized.
