> Now that the object is on the form, you will notice it is difficult to position it where you want it. Unlike VFP, you cannot highlight the VB object, and use the arrow keys to "fine tune" the objects position. In fact, there are no tools to line up objects. You will cuss VB and love VFP more, after completing a project in VB. You can however, highlight the object, and drag it to a default grid matrix position, determined to be the one you want, by Bill Gates and his "boys".

Hi Tom,
I found myself in strange position. Usually I defend VFP against VB and ACCESS (2 primary tools in my company). VFP is very good, but truth is that when you are talking about form creation, VB at least as good as VFP. In fact you can easy position or re-size and line up object. Take a look at "Form Editor" toolbar.
Let's try to be fair! VFP is good enough even when you compare it with other good tools.
Thanks,
Oleg
