VS 2008 : Dynamically Update Label Text?
Aug 8, 2011
I have several group boxes on a winform. within each there are several labels.I am accessing the group boxes with no issues but I can't seem to find a way to update the labels within by looping. They have the same name except the last character which is a number 1 - 9. ex. lbl1, lbl2 ... lbl9.I need to update the text of each label in code with text I get from a database ex. lbl1.text = one, lbl2.text = two etc... I want to loop through the labels to assign the text. Getting text from database is no issue what I am not doing properly is getting the labels.
do while QstNum < 10
Dim ln As New Label
ln.Name = "SC_Cat" & QstNum
[code]....

Is there a way that a label's text is updated each time the input of a textbox changes? The textbox and the label are on the same form. I looked everywhere but didn't find a solution that worked.

I have only 1 Label in my form. There is no text in Label1. I want that when I run the project, the label has any word or number in it like '1'. I want that when I run the project again, the word or number in the label should be changed to '0'. The name of my label is Label1.

Is there a way to change label text at run time?. I don't want to annoy users with popup. So planning to display error in a label if its text could be changed.
So far I have included a Main Form which has a label lblErrorFeedback which is not visible initially and I have done this but does not work.
lblErrorFeedback.Visible = True
lblErrorFeedback.Text = ""
lblErrorFeedback.TextAlign = ContentAlignment.MiddleRight
lblErrorFeedback.Text = "Error Occured"
Is there a better way to show the error with out popups?

I am adding controls to a page programatically in the code behind. I add an asp:Label and set it's Text value. I add an asp:TextBox and set it's Text value. Both Text values are returned in the Response and displayed in the browser. All fine so far.
The user performs an action that causes a postback. I re-load the dynamically added asp:Label and asp:TextBox. When the Response is returned to the browser, only the asp:TextBox Text value is displayed. The asp:Label Text value is not. If I inspect the HTML I can see the asp:Label control (rendered as an HTML span tag) but no value.
How can I get the code to automatically re-load the Text value of an asp:Label on each postback? Why is the behaviour different for an asp:Label and an asp:TextBox? I do not want to have to manually re-set the Text value on each postback.
Here is some code similar to what I am doing (placeHolderNameplates is an asp:PlaceHolder control on the aspx page): Protected Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Init
If Not Page.IsPostBack Then

In my vb.net winform application, on click of start button the label1.text should be "process started" then some filesaving method will run after finish that method the label1.text should change to "file saved".
Private Sub btnStart_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnStart.Click
lblStatus.ForeColor = Color.Red
lblStatus.Text = "Saving to File"
[code]....
the initial status of label "saving to file" is not comingup. after the Trigger method finished, the status of the label is changing to "File saved"

I've been having this problem with my program hanging up sometimes. I tracked the problem down to the following statement:
me.lblPrompt.Text = strInfoToDisplay
So I checked strInfoToDisplay and sure enough it had in there what I thought it would. So then I checked lblPrompt. I'm using the command window and just using? me.lblPrompt.Text to get the system to tell the the value. Well, guess what it does? It hangs up. I haven't been able to get the command window to tell me one time what's going on. However, I know it has to work sometimes becuase the program (from the user standpoint) doesn't always freeze up the way it does when I can't read the prompt.

I have a Main Module that loads a form. I want to update text on a Label, my code is:
Public mFormSplash As Form = New FormSplash
Sub Main
With mFormSplash[code]....
The code loads the form OK but does not update the Label's text (LabelStatus)I am getting an error Error:
'LabelStatus' is not a member of 'System.Windows.Forms.Form'.
This worked ok on a previous project and I can't work out what is different.

I am creating a Pizza Order program as part of my coursework college. why something isn't working.
Quote:
lblTotal.Text = Val(Form2.lblPizzaTotal.Text) + Val(Form3.lblDrinksTotal.Text)
The code above is what I am using to add the Value of Label 1 (Pizza Total) and Label 2 (Drinks Total), however it seems that in the final total it doesn't appear to add the value of Label 2.

Greetings, I'm sure there's a simple solution to my question, but I haven't figured it out yet. I have a Form with 12 Label objects L1-L12. I'm trying to set the ".Text" values of those label objects with the values of the fields in a Database table,,, Here's what I have. It DOES NOT get errors. But it doesn't work either.

I am attempting to dynamically create a profile page. Everything works fine except when I try to add the title (surrounded by <h2> tags) to the lbl control which is inserted in the select statement. Let me know if this is too confusing and I will attempt to explain further.

I've been working at this for hours, and I'm completely stumped. There may be a more elegant way to do what I want, but I can't find it in my reference books or online. I have a form that has 64 labels corresponding to 64 unique locations on a map. Each of the labels contains one character, a ●. The program determines, randomly, if these is something in those locations.'m using a For... next loop to step through each location and determine if there is something there.My question is how do I turn off the label in the form without resorting to some 64 choice Select Case statement (or something similar).

I am trying to dynamically add label fields for a form. Just to test I am trying to write in just one label field. Every time I debug the program though I dont get any labels added to the form. Stepping through it looks like the properties are being set correctly.[code]

I'm programatically creating labels in programatically-created panels, and have run into an issue--the label's information isn't completely showing! COnsistently only the first few characters are consistently displayed. I've tried bringtofront, but it doesn't work at all. And the characters stop well short of the panel barrier--does anyone know what to do about this? I used messagebox.show(labelname.text) to make sure it wasn't working properly, and sure enough all the characters I want are in the label, but aren't appearing.

Using VB 2008 Express.
How would I create a label that reports a file size at all times? Or, on a regular basis, say every 10 seconds or so.
In my form, I want a label to watch certain file sizes (logs, etc.) in case one suddenly becomes too big.
It is easy enough to report a static file size when a form launches, but changing it dynamically...I don't know how to do that yet.
The following example is generic and simplified for illustration purposes.
The file is C:Applicationapplication.log
The label might include:
("The application.log file is {0} bytes.",GetFileInfo.Length)
or something like that. But that would report a file size once and never again unless I quit and restart the form.
If any .NET concept is used, can you provide a link to the documentation or msdn stuff?

I have a label and sometime the text for this label is longer than it can display. I am more concern about the end part of the text than the beginning. How do i make the label show the end part or make the text scroll automatically. And how do i know the text extend passed the length of the label?

I have the form with a tab control on it, there are 5 tabs each with a label contained in the tab-page.I want to have a button outside of the tab that changes on the form. when clicked the button will change the text of the label based on which tab is currently selected. I know it should be possible to do this, I'm not too sure where to start.

I'm making a button that will create a textbox, and label dynamically.
I have it creating both, but when I try to set a font on the label, it disappears.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
NumBox = NumBox + 1
[Code]....
When I remove the line that sets the label's font, it shows up, but in the default font.

I have a form that I am loading text (strings) from a database into a label.text (so the text from the database shows up into the label) I have done this code in a class that keeps all my database stuff seperate.
Public Function getQuestions() As List(Of String)
Dim question As New List(Of String)
objConnection.Open()
objReader = objcommand.ExecuteReader
[CODE]...
Within the form that the label is in I have done this code
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Label1.Text(db.getQuestions().ToArray)
End Sub
I am basically making a quiz, so that when the form loads, question 1 is on there is 4 possible answers. You then press next button and it goes to the next question.

im making a tabbed web browser, and wondered if i can add a label and see what the page is loading, similar to other browsers like in the bottom left EG. "Connecting to [url]" etc. Note, im using TabControl, so commands like "WebBrowser1.Stop()" etc, will not work for me.

I've been tasked to create one automation program that needs to read SysListview32, Listbox and Label content of another application [this was written by previous employee, but the source code didn't preserve]. I'm now successfully reading the content of ListBox and ListView, however I haven't been able to read the Label content....I've somewhere even read this might not be possible, which is what I wouldn't like to hear here as well )))The target application was written probably in C++ and when I get over the target label with tools such as Spy++ or Winspector, it doesn't draw the red rectangle around the label...

Is it possible to read a label's text property of another app?I know how to get the handle of the main window, and i got the code for the child.But the problem is that there's like 20 other labels on the window and when i use winID to get it's class, it's just "Edit", and it's the same for all the labels. And the title is the value of the labels text property.
