Move a label vertically downwards on a form

simple problem

I want to create a chessboard composed of labels, this works fine for the top row, but how do i employ the move function to move onto the next line


Private Sub Form_Load()

board.Width = 8000
board.Height = 8000
Dim c, lcount As Integer
Dim col As Boolean

For c = 1 To 7 ' do horizontal
Load lblsquare(c)
lcount = lcount + 1
If col = False Then ' for colour
lblsquare(c).BackColor = vbWhite
col = True
Else: col = False
End If


lblsquare(c).Height = (board.Height / 8) 'put square in correct position
lblsquare(c).Width = (board.Width / 8)
lblsquare(c).Move c * 1000
lblsquare(c).Visible = True


Next c

End Sub

you can load the whole board in one loop useing the Mod function to return that it is on the next line

your command to set the next row would be

VB Code:

With origin.ldate(n)
                .Left = origin.lday(n Mod 7).Left
                .Top = origin.ldate(0).Top + (origin.ldate(0).Height * (n \ 7))
                If .Top + .Height > origin.Height - 100 Then .Top = origin.ldate(0).Top
                If m = Format(d, "mm") Then .Visible = True
                .Caption = Format(d, "d ")
                .Tag = d
                .Visible = True
 
            End With

this was for a calander loaded labels 7 x 5 , so if you change the Mod 7 and \7 to 8 it should make your board

thanks i'll give it a go
