Hi,

Yes very happy with Anchor to use it on textboxes and labels Ii dont resize the box (make them wider or narrower )a wider textbox invites the user to input much more than allowed. Just leave the width of these objects according to the max length of input characters (take "W" as widest character. The height of the textboxes and labels should not be changed. Use anchor for textboxes and labels only to change the position on the form.

Regards,

Koen
