Center Controls when form is Maximized

Question

I have a windows form that has a Panel that has about six Labels. Some of the labels are on the left on the Panel and some at the center. My question is that how do i make all the controls centered when the form is maximized.

For Example:

If the panel controls are like this

Label1                   Label2
           Label3
   Label4             Label5

This is what i want to achieve when the form is maximized

                          Label1                   Label2
                                      Label3
                             Label4             Label5

At design time you need to center your controls and then go to the anchoring property of each control and remove any anchoring(Left,Right,Top,Bottom) they have. This will ensure that when form is resized they remain at their design time position.
