how to change location of a form?

[chidambaram]

hi everybody,

I want to change the location of a button in a form. How can i do this?


I tried as

button1.location.X = 550

It shows the error as cannot modify the return value of "System.Windows.Forms.Control.Location" because it is not a variable.

how can i rectify this?


Thanks in advance

If you want to change just the horizontal position you set the Left property. If you want to set just the vertical position you set the Top property. If you want to set both you create a Point object and assign it to the Location property.
