I remember someone asked me during the presentation about how to enable Grid Layout in webforms in asp.net 2. Well the support for the grid layout is dropped by them Team and you have to work in the flow layout. But it also supports the Grid view for your controls, this is the trick :)... You just have to position your controls by giving absolute positioning. Goto the Layout Menu (at the top where you see File, Edit, View etc) and select Position-->Absolute layout. Then
you can more your controls anywhere in the form with absolute positioning.
