can you add existing items on a form to a groupbox?

I've got a whole bunch of labels and comboboxes that I have aligned up nicely and renamed etc. Now I've decided I want to group them together on a GroupBox.
I can't seem to find a way to do so without losing all my alignments etc.
Is there a way?

make the groupbox larger then the area needed to hold all the controls. then select all the controls (use shift button), cut, select groupbox and paste. that should preserve all settings

Doh! Thanks for that Daddy. Should have thought of that.

Took me a while to cotton on why the paste was pasting them all towards the bottom of the groupbox, most on top of each other, until I realised it was copying the relative position on the main form, and pasting them the same amount from the top of the groupbox.

All sorted now, thanks.
