I figured out how to add a control to my form based on the number of items added to a listbox.

    ListBox1.Items.Add(TextBox1.Text)
    TextBox1.Text = ""

    For i As Integer = 0 To ListBox1.Items.Count - 1

        'adds picturebox for as many listbox items added
        Dim MyPictureBox As New PictureBox()
        MyPictureBox.Location = New Point(25, 25)
        MyPictureBox.Size = New Size(15, 15)
        MyPictureBox.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.StretchImage
        Me.Controls.Add(MyPictureBox)
        MyPictureBox.Image = My.Resources.PDF_Info

    Next i

What I can’t seem to figure out is how to add a second control, but add it in another location on the form.

So the first entry would place the picturebox at 25, 25 and when I enter a second item, it’ll create another picturebox at 45, 45 and etc.

Can this be done?
