This program allows you to automatically size and position controls on worksheets, dialogsheets or charts. It is not neccessarily limited to controls, it will operate on any drawing object that has Top, Left, Width, or Height properties. Use the following steps to run the program.

1) Load the program by opening it as you would any other Excel file. If you want to have it load every time you open Excel, you can either put it in your xlstart directory or use the <Tools><Add-Ins> menu command to add it to your list of add-ins.

2) Select all of the controls that you want to position. The easiest way to do this is to display the Drawing toolbar and use the Drawing Selection button on this toolbar to drag a box around all of the controls. 

3) Choose <Tools><Position Controls> from the menu. The program uses the properties of the control at the top or left of the selected group to position and size the rest of the controls, so you need to get this one set before you start the program. You can position the controls without resizing or spacing them.

4) Select the options in the dialog that you want to apply to your controls. The spacing is set in points (1/72 of an inch). Choose Ok when you are finished. The program will apply your choices to the selected controls.
