Panel or Placeholder ??

[vbnetrookie]

Hi all,

Something that sounds very basic to me just doesn't seem easy at all. I am creating a web app (form) and am writing in VB.Net using VS.NET and would like a panel as a background with a title in the top left corner. In this panel I would like to place 4 labels and 4 drop down lists.
I thought that the Panel component from the toolbox would do this just fine but I can't seem to place my components were I want.
I can adjust the size of the panel and change the title, but when I drop a label on it, I can't position it were I want, it places it just beside the title, and the same thing happens with every component I add onto it.
Can anyone explain to me how I can place my components (drop down list and labels) were I want on that panel.

Or should I be using the place holder or another tool for this??

I just want a rectangle that would put in perspective these drop down lists inside my web form.

Thanks for the help guys!!
JMT

I don't have too much experience with webpage design but...
I would use a table. You can even place the table in the panel if need be.

Or are you creating the components at run-time?
