If I am understanding your problem correctly simply create all ten text boxes and labels filling them with the appropriate data. As you want them removed simply hide the text box. You can even shrink the form giving the appearance that they have been removed if necessary. (Personally I would grey them out so you can still see the losers but know that they are eliminated) Another option is to use scope to your advantage. You can simply create method that instantiates a text box and label. Each time you call that method it will create a new instance of the text box. Simply add them to a global array or list and you have dynamic creation of text boxes and labels that can be manipulated. I hope that helps. I have used this method with rtb's in the project I am currently working on. Good Luck

we can dynamically create textbox and labels during runtime based on the retrieval of data from the database. http://www.dreamincode.net/forums/topic/55336-how-to-dynamically-create-textbox-at-runtime/
