[Gambas-user] Trying to create a form and add controls dynamically

[Tim Auld]

Hi Benoit,
Thanks for responding and thanks for the example.  It worked great.  I'm
am a VB programmer from way back.  I just love what you and the team
have done with Gambas.  I can't get over the speed with which it
executes, especially database access. 

Regards ... Tim.
