Text Box Alignment

[Jim Heavey]

Hello, I am using "flow Layout" and I am creating an input form for a bunch
of fields. I work the form on one monitor and get everything to line up
and then when I go to another monitor they are mis-aligned. What technique
do you use to get your controls to line up correctly? The form does not
really lend itself to a table, but I guess that is an option.

I was told that if I used "Grid" layout and used control like "Required
Field Validator". So is grid layout an option?

Thanks in advance for your assistance!!!!!!!!

use Style - set ur controls to be absolutely/relatively positioned according
to ur requirement.

I'm old fashioned and always use tables, even for pretty simple stuff like label + textbox. For one thing, I usually like the behavior that if the user chooses to scrunch the browser down, the cells will wrap automatically, etc.

Grid mode works even less well. Use tables to line up forms.
