If using LV7, if you show the panel grid, 0,0 is marked by darker lines and should be pretty obvious. The next question though, is why is 0,0 needed? The most common usage is to place the control relative to something else. Read the position of a graph for example and put the other controls ten pixels to the left of the right edge. With this usage, you don't really need to know any particular screen position. Greg McKaskle
