This won't happen if you put the controls instide a container eg HBox1(here 
the dotted lines represent Hbox 1). See the pictures attatched. Note that the 
expand property of the textbox is set to true.

-----------------------------------------------
| label1          textbox1                   |
-----------------------------------------------

However, if you simply gave the new form dialog properties when asked to 
create the form most of that (the button positioning) would be done for you, 
and you would only have to add the above.

Of course you will have to make it look prettier than my pictures!

Regards

Richard
