Winforms TableLayoutPanel adding rows programmatically

I just did this last week. Set the GrowStyle on the TableLayoutPanel to AddRows or AddColumns, then your code should work:

// Adds "myControl" to the first column of each row
myTableLayoutPanel.Controls.Add(myControl1, 0 /* Column Index */, 0 /* Row index */);
myTableLayoutPanel.Controls.Add(myControl2, 0 /* Column Index */, 1 /* Row index */);
myTableLayoutPanel.Controls.Add(myControl3, 0 /* Column Index */, 2 /* Row index */);

Here is some working code that seems similar to what you are doing:

    private Int32 tlpRowCount = 0;

    private void BindAddress()
    {
        Addlabel(Addresses.Street);
        if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(Addresses.Street2))
        {
            Addlabel(Addresses.Street2);
        }
        Addlabel(Addresses.CityStateZip);
        if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(Account.Country))
        {
            Addlabel(Address.Country);
        }
        Addlabel(String.Empty); // Notice the empty label...
    }

    private void Addlabel(String text)
    {            
        label = new Label();
        label.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
        label.Text = text;
        label.TextAlign = System.Drawing.ContentAlignment.MiddleLeft;
        tlpAddress.Controls.Add(label, 1, tlpRowCount);
        tlpRowCount++;
    }

The TableLayoutPanel always gives me fits with size. In my example above, I’m filing an address card that might grow or shrink depending on the account having an address line two, or a country. Because the last row, or column, of the table layout panel will stretch, I throw the empty label in there to force a new empty row, then everything lines up nicely.

Here is the designer code so you can see the table I start with:

        //
        // tlpAddress
        // 
        this.tlpAddress.AutoSize = true;
        this.tlpAddress.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Transparent;
        this.tlpAddress.ColumnCount = 2;
        this.tlpAddress.ColumnStyles.Add(new System.Windows.Forms.ColumnStyle(System.Windows.Forms.SizeType.Absolute, 25F));
        this.tlpAddress.ColumnStyles.Add(new System.Windows.Forms.ColumnStyle(System.Windows.Forms.SizeType.Percent, 100F));
        this.tlpAddress.Controls.Add(this.pictureBox1, 0, 0);
        this.tlpAddress.Dock = System.Windows.Forms.DockStyle.Fill;
        this.tlpAddress.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(0, 0);
        this.tlpAddress.Name = "tlpAddress";
        this.tlpAddress.Padding = new System.Windows.Forms.Padding(3);
        this.tlpAddress.RowCount = 2;
        this.tlpAddress.RowStyles.Add(new System.Windows.Forms.RowStyle());
        this.tlpAddress.RowStyles.Add(new System.Windows.Forms.RowStyle());
        this.tlpAddress.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(220, 95);
        this.tlpAddress.TabIndex = 0;
