How can I iterate through a reports labels/fields?

I'm writing some crystal reports (in visual studio) that we would like to be generic i.e. although the basic layout stays the same as our template, the labels could be in different languages. Due to the different lengths of the technical terms in the various languages, I would need to programmatically repostion some of the labels after loading, but before displaying in a CrystalReportViewer.
Thus I need to loop through the reports controls.
Cheers,
 
You could could divide you sections into subsections for each language and suppress sub sections based on the language.

Thanks, but the reason they want it generic, is cos I'm a contractor, who won't be around when they add the various new languages - so I was going to give them a screen, iterating through the English labels, and allowing them to input the translation, and positioning information, before writing this to a database for future use.
