You made no mention of the language you are coding in, but I think all of the .NET languages support the .Location and .Bounds properties of a control.

Check the .Location and .Bounds of the control that is your base/anchor/starting point. Then calculate from there for the next control. Get the .Bounds.Width for example, then set the location of the next control to the Location of the first control + the width of that control + the space/margin you would like between the controls.

[CODE=c]mySecondControl .Location.x = myFirstControl. Location + myFirstControl. Bounds.Width + nMargin;[/CODE]

for example
