Ok how do I get to those? Don't have any of that stuff on me so will have to try and imagine. It's nothing important; it's just an exercise to help me learn C#, but I guess when it comes to the assignment it may become important.

you can use the layout and form managers to lay it out, and/or move things around by the top and left properties of each control in the form.to give you an idea of what your building I would recommend using a sheet of paper or Braille paper, turned sideways and using a credit/id card for a list or combo box, a dymo tape brail label that says textbx (note the spelling there) for standard text Boxes and labels, and a dime, or penny for buttonshmm, I think another dymo tape label running vertically would do alright in representing a frame for radio buttons or check boxes, figuring one and a half letters for each button/boxHTH, inthane proprietor, The Grab Bag, for blind computer users and programmers http://grabbag.alacorncomputer.com Owner: Alacorn Computer Enterprises "own the might and majesty of a Alacorn!" www.alacorncomputer.com Owner: Agemtree "merchants in fine facetted and cabochon gemstones" www.agemtree.comoperator: Fruit Basket Demo Sight, where you can find a similar project done in several programming languages, along with its source code, so you can decide what language is right for youhttp://fruitbasketdemo.alacorncomputer.com----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Hallsworth" <christopherhallsworth71@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, October 07, 2008 1:16 PM Subject: Tips on laying out forms using Visual Studio 2008Hi all, I've just created my first programme in the C# language. It's accessible using the keyboard, but I'm not happy with the visual layout as no doubt the controls (a button and two text boxes), as well as the main form, are on top of each other. Does anyone have any tips on improving the visual layout of forms? For example changing the position of the controls? All help would be greatly appreciated.
