Yeah, GetColumn/GetPositionFromControl are designed to find where a 
Control is in the TableLayoutPanel.  I don't think there's much that 
helps you use TLP as just a grid.

You will probably need to use GetColumnWidths and GetRowHeights to 
calculate which col/row was clicked using the mouse coordinates from 
MouseClick.
