Actually, a regular textbox WILL let you center text, but ONLY if the Multiline property is set to true (if Multiline is False, then the Alignment property has no effect; the text is always aligned left). Toot's label suggestion is good if the user doesn't need to change the text. In response to your orignal question, you could do this:
set the Multiline property to True
set the Alignment property to Center
In code:
Text1.Text = "ACTUAL" & vbNewLine & "3/31/00"
