Hi:

I'm trying to setup a simple (for now) letterhead like the following.
Is there a way to automatically adjust the horizontal spacing between
the \vbox{} \cbox{} \lbox{}
so that if I change the document margins, the center box is automatically 
centered?
I've tried putting in \hfill's without luck.


\startenvironment
\setuppapersize[letter][letter]
\setuplayout[height=9in,
             header=1.0in,
             footer=0in,
             topspace=1in,
             backspace=1.33in, %the backspace includes the margin
             location=middle,marking=on]
\setuppagenumbering [alternative=singlesided]
\noheaderandfooterlines
\setupbodyfont[cmr,12pt]

   }
