Hi Michelle,

As Bill mentioned this is font related. The easiest way around it is this. First, select a fixed width font, such as Courier New. Second, determine the width of one character. The easiest way to do this is to have the show position option on, and use pixels as the scale. Once you've determined the width of one character, all you have to do is make sure that there is at least that much space between (right edge) the end of one label/field and the start (left edge) of the next. I've always thought that FPW made this a bit easier, since it displayed all related co-ordinates for the selected object.

hth,
