In the designer, set the Visible property on the Acct # label and text box to false, and on the text entered event of each text box (Primer Broker, etc), set the Visible Property back to true.

I believe it is the textchanged event that you need.

So basically, on each textbox (prime broker, custodian..) create a textchanged event.

Now, on form_load hide the three textboxes -> broker1Textbox.visible = false.

In the textchanged event for each textbox, turn the appropriate hidden textbox's visibility to True.

that should do it.

Something like

Private Sub Broker1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Broker1.TextChanged
Me.AcctLabel1.Visible = (Broker1.text.length>0)
  End Sub

that way they will hide when you delete the text
