    Best way going about adding items to a ListBox

    Right now as you can see I just have a label above the ListBox, but I think I am going to have a problem lining everything up correctly. Is there a better way to do headers for the ListBox?

    TIA

    Rick

    What are your concerns? It looks pretty good to me. BTW your Male/Female check boxes should probably be a pair of radio buttons instead.

    You need to use a ListView instead... It has headers that line up with the text entered... your list is going to be all funky and out of line the way you have ti now using a regular list box.

    Rick LV: I definately agree with Arc. I thought you were talking about the Shift and Dependents listboxes and not the Shift - ID - Last Name - etc one.
