What happened to Alignment property?

I'm working on an ASP.NET with VB.NET web application (Web Forms) and I
can't find an Alignment property for the TextBox nor the Label control?
What am I missing?

Thanks, Rob.

In ASP.Net, you would use styles or stylesheets to control text alignment
(see text-align attribute).

Programatically:
TextBox1.Attributes.Add("text-align", "right")

Style:

..MyCSSClass {
text-align : right;
}

Thank you for the response.

I must admit, tasks that are VERY simple to accomplish in VB.NET Windows
applications are considerably more code intensive under ASP.NET. I keep
trying to convience myself that I'm not moving backwards in development
technology when it comes to Web application development -- there must be a
better way.

But thanks again for your help.

Rob.

The following worked for me:
<html><head><title>Test</title></head>
<body>
<input type="text" style="width:100px;text-align:right;">
</body>
</html>
