Re: letting users make controls

You can dynamically create controls, no problem.

The format would be on the lines of:

Dim frm As New Form
Dim tbox As New TextBox
frm.Name = "Form" & cnt
tbox.Name = "Textbox" & cnt
tbox.Text = "Textbox" & cnt
tbox.Location = New Point(30, 40)
frm.Controls.Add(tbox)
frm.Show()
cnt += 1
