Creating a label programatically (i.e. not in designer) won’t right-align on my form.

Set lblStatus = StatusForm.Controls.Add("VB.Label", "lbl" & xml(Prop, "column"))
With lblStatus
    .Visible = True
    .Caption = Text
    .Alignment = vbRightJustify
    .WordWrap = False
    .AutoSize = True
    .top = Index * (lblStatus.height)
    .left = MaxWidth - Screen.TwipsPerPixelX * 15
    .Width = StatusForm.TextWidth(Text)
End With

I created three of these controls, but they continue to expand from the left, rather than from the right:

Left-justified labels

Ideally, I want those labels (surrounded by #) to have their semicolons line up.

    Since you set AutoSize to true, the width is set to the precise width of the text, leaving no room for alignment.

    To layout the text within a fixed width, turn off AutoSize.
