I thought this would be straightforward but it's not. How do I
programmatically reduce the width of a textbox by 20 pixels, say?
TextBox1.Width = TextBox1.Width - 20;
doesn't work.
Thanks in advance!

Try this code:
TextBox1.Attributes.Add("width", 150)

I hope this helps,

For that matter I could say:
TextBox1.Width=150;
which works, but that's not what I want.

are you looking for this ?
this.TextBox1.Width = Unit.Pixel((int)TextBox1.Width.Value - 20) ;

The width of a textbox is not accessible thru the attributes collection. You
need to test your code before posting it! ;-)

Your code doesn't work. Perhaps you should consider buying a book. I can
recommend a few if you like...
"Beginner's Guide to ASP.NET"
"ASP.NET for Dummies"
Those should get you started.

Gee, for a person who can't even figure out how to set the width of a
textbox you aren't very humble now are you?
If only you were as wise as Gandalf the Grey.
The next time you post a question I shall promptly ignore it.
Natty's code is great for some situations depending on what you are trying
to do, but it only works with IE. Mine is cross browser.
In case you care, here's the working version of the code that I meant to
post:
MyTextBox.Attributes.Add("style", "width:350px;")
I'd explain to you how it works, but you probably wouldn't understand
anyway.
