That's a little more difficult because I found that I must not actually
*create* a label at design time because it will then be added to the form

Well, it's the pixel distance from the edit. Delphi forms are constructed
with pixel coordinates. So left or upwards direction is naturally negative
and in the left direction you'll typically need something between -40
and -100. This seems logical to me, maybe we'll hear another opinion on
this? Anyone?

Sure.
