label does not contain location property

I use a loop to create multiple labels using VB.NET. Currently, I want to change the labels position horizontally, but the label1.location is not working at all. It shows an error saying:

label1.location

location is not member of label.

The same happens with the caption property. It's WebForms application (visual studio 2015).

Sub countTable()
Dim _dt As New DataTable
fromdt = Me.fromdate.Text
todt = Me.todate.Text
model_no = Me.modelno.SelectedValue
' defect = Me.defectcode.SelectedValue

gradeee = ""
For Each item As ListItem In ll.Items
If item.Selected Then
gradeee += "'" & item.Text & "',"
'message += item.Text + " " + item.Value + "n"
End If
Next
gradeee += "'test'"

defect = Me.defectcode.SelectedValue
classifi = ""
For Each item As ListItem In mm.Items
If item.Selected Then
classifi += "'" & item.Text & "',"
'message += item.Text + " " + item.Value + "n"
End If
Next
classifi += "'test'"
'Me.Label1.Text = classifi

_sql = " SELECT distinct TO_CHAR(S.TEST_TIME,'YYYY/MM/DD') AS period "
_sql += " FROM CELLINT.CELL_TEST T "
_sql += " LEFT OUTER JOIN CELLINT.CELL_TEST_YIELD S "
_sql += " ON S.SHEET_ID = T.SHEET_ID "
_sql += " and S.TEST_TIME between to_date('" & fromdt & "','YYYY/MM/DD') and to_date('" & todt & "','YYYY/MM/DD') "
If model_no <> "All" Then
_sql += " and S.model_no = '" & model_no & "'"
End If
_sql += " and T.defect_code_desc || '(' || T.defect_code ||')' = '" & defect & "'"

If classifi.Contains("All") = True Then

Else
_sql += " and s.class in (" & classifi & ") "
'_sql += " and class = '" & classifi & "' "
End If
If gradeee.Contains("All") = True Then

Else
_sql += " and t.grade in (" & gradeee & ") "
'_sql += " and class = '" & classifi & "' "
End If
_sql += " order by TO_CHAR(S.TEST_TIME,'YYYY/MM/DD') asc "
' Response.Write(_sql)
_dt = CIMDatabaseLink_USR.GetDataTable(_sql)

count = _dt.Rows.Count - 1
'Response.Write(_dt.Rows.Count - 1)

For i = 0 To count
Dim returnHTML As String = ""
Dim myLabel As Label = New Label()

period = "" & _dt.Rows(i).Item("period").ToString() & ""
returnHTML = "<table><tr>"
returnHTML = returnHTML & "<td><div>" & ReturnTable(period) & "</div><td>"
returnHTML = returnHTML & "</tr></table>"

myLabel.ID = "Label" & i & ""
' myLabel.Text = Server.HtmlDecode(ReturnTable(period))
myLabel.Text = Server.HtmlDecode(returnHTML)
myLabel.Location = New Point(7, 10)

PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(myLabel)
Next
End Sub

myLabel.Style.Add("position" , "absolute")
myLabel.Style.Add("top" , "7px")
myLabel.Style.Add("left" , "10px")


Those are just some examples, but try something like that via code-behind to change the style of the label.

You could also use to do them all

myLabel.Attributes.Add("style" , "top: 7px; left: 10px; position: absolute;")
