    I have a tab control with multiple controls on each sheel. I am trying to put the controls in the same relative position on each tab page. So far, I have to manually enter the various measurements one-by-one in the controls. That is OK for a few controls, but is a problem with more controls. Any ideas?

      Would it be possible to set the GridX and GridY properties of the form such that the controls automatically end up in the correct places?

      You can also use the various align and distribute commands in the Format menu.

      It is also possible to write VBA code to control the position of the controls, but it often takes more time to tweak such code than to place the controls manually.
