How do you create a label with the background and
foreground colors inverted? I.e. on a B&W screen, the
background is black and the label text is white.

Is there a way to calculate how many pixels wide
certain characters or spaces take up? I'm trying to
right-justify a label whose text is dynamic. If I knew
how wide it was going to be I could determine it's
left edge starting position. Currently it's a static
label on the form and I've tried inserting spaces, but
the spaces don't take up the same pixel width as the
characters that they're supposed to be replacing.

What are the pros/cons regarding dynamic UI vs static
elements on forms? Is it memory vs. performance? I'm
assuming that using static elements increases the size
of your application, and that dynamic elements take
more time to create and may impact performance. Is
that a right assumption? Also, do you have to do any
cleanup after you've created an element dynamically?

Thanks.
