Summary
In this hour you learned how to place controls onto a form and how to size and move the controls. After you place controls, you must set the control property values so that the controls take on the values your application requires. (Don't you wish you could set your real estate property values just as easily?)
The next hour gets specific and describes these three common controls in detail: command buttons, labels, and text boxes.
