set control location on runtime

[Ajay R Ojha]

I want to set location of textboxes and labels at runtime. i get the coordinates from sql tables but when the location changes of 50 textboxes and labels the entire screen flickers and looks very bad. suggest me a way to change location without flickers. thanks.

Try to use : SetStyle(ControlStyles.OptimizedDoubleBuffer, true);

[quiteSmart]

you can use the form_onload event of the form and set there everything u need for the textboxes and for the labels. this event fires only once when the form is first loaded for the first time. hope it helps jamil abou khalil

Maybe this?

theTopLevelForm.SuspendLayout();
// set the locations
theTopLevelForm.ResumeLayout();
