dialog with mixedform option
Most probably you don't need it anymore but maybe it will help to other guys. Here is a sample how it can be done :

Code:
/usr/bin/dialog --title "Mixed Form" --backtitle "Mixed Form" --insecure \
                --mixedform "This is simple mixedform :" 15 50 0 \
                "User name       : " 1 1 "user" 1 20 20 0 0 \
                "Password        :"      2 1    "pass1"  2 20  20 0 1 \
                "Retype Password :"      3 1    "pass2"  3 20  20 0 1 2> /tmp/file

P.S. Be careful option --mixedform is only available in latest dialog command.
