Hi Brian,

For clarification of this thread for other readers, I think in your message you meant to say to drop a "Grid Layout Panel". That would give you the capabilities to add absolute positioning when you are using Flow Layout.


>Thanks Keith. You're probably correct about the web user control - in my case, I've created a web user control that contains a single drop down list control, and automatically populates it with data from a database.

Wherever the web user control needs to be posisitions, drop in a 'Flow Layout' panel sized and positions as needed. You can then drag-and-drop the web user control into the Flow Layout panel. It's still not perfect, but it helps.
