Steve,

I cannot replicate the Control generator issue of not displaying the
labels after the first IB_Edit is added.
My test dataset had 5 fields, with a mix of numeric, datetime, varchar
and integer. I tried dragging both fields onto the form and then one by
one. Both ways of adding the controls resulted in the labels being present.

The only issues I can find are the autolabel kind setting is not being
respected and the new autolabel kinds aren't present in the drop-down
list and the Datasource not being assigned. I'll try and figure out
what's going on this weekend.

As for the overlaying and missing labels I could not reproduce the problem.
