Is it possible to center the Text in a TEdit? I don't see a property to
align the text.
Thanks

Yes, but not reliably.

There isn't one. You need to apply ES_CENTER to it's GWL_STYLE.
For example:
::SetWindowLong( Edit1->Handle, GWL_STYLE, ::GetWindowLong(Edit1->Handle, GWL_STYLE) | ES_CENTER );
Keep in mind that if the underlying HWND is ever recreated,
you'll lose the ES_CENTER to you should override it's
CreateParams method instead. However, IIRC, Win98 and below do
not support center or right alignment on single line controls.
If you need to support all OS's, you need to use a multi-line control instead.
