when i drag and drop the controls they get arranged by default and if i try to move they dont as if they are forming a row

are you trying to:
1. move child controls within the ascx file?
2. move the web user control within an aspx file?
3. move child controls of a web user control from a page file?

1 and 2 are possible. 3 is not. that's the nature of the controls.

if this isn't what your talking about try switching to the markup view and move the tags/controls around.

Using a GridLayout means that the controls will be positioned on the page by using absolute positioning. Unless absolutely necessary (which in most cases it isn't), this should be avoided as it takes the elements out of the natural flow of the rendered page. Using the method suggested by jbenson001 is the more recommended approach.
