basically i need to change the text of a label where the name of the label comes from the value of a variable.So, for example,
Dim x as String = "lblTarget"
Dim y as String = "Target Text"
In this case the text of "lblTarget" would need to be come "Target Text". Basically, the label that is named the value of variable x would need to take on the text of variable y.
I have question about Label.Text.
When run the code Form1 load together with Form2.On Form2 I have Label1.I need that Label.Text flicker or blinking.
i tried to change back color of a label by command button by using a variable value
Private Sub Button3_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click

but its giving error and is not working,
Label1.BackColor = Color.Red is working but I wanted to do this with variable value
Is there an effecient way to give one label the ForeColor, BackColor and Text of another one of 3 possible labels? I need to do this frequently for a dozen labels in a windows form.
View 2 RepliesI am using a label to display a song for an mp3 player. I wanted to scroll the text inside the label for anything that is longer than the label width. I figured out the width of the label and if the width of the text inside the label is longer. But I have no idea how to turn this into subtracting parts/pixels of the text currently displayed and how to append the subtracted parts to the end of the new text.

I have written a public sub to update a label on a different form by passing in an integer. If I pass in the -1 value it will update the label, but if I pass in any other value, it will run the code (verified by stepping line by line) but the label won't update, even when adding the doevents.

i have been trying to get a module to change the text of a label but it does seem to want to.
i havent coded for a few years and in the days of old i remember it being easy, i.e form1.label1.text = "what ever". only that give the error reference to non-shared member.
so i dim formstat as form1 and try again with formstat.label.text = "what ever" only this time it give the error nullreferenceexception was unhandled
I have a "Start" button and a label. The label.text during form load contains "Ready...". Now what I want, after I click the "Start" button, the button will become grey and the label.text contains "Processing...". I managed to make the button become grey, but I couldn't change the label.text from "Ready..." to "Processing..." and back to "Ready..." after completion of the task.
Here is the code:
Public Class Form1
Dim i As Integer
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
[Code] .....
*In actual, the do until loop contains more than just 2 lines.
What happened when I click the "Start" button were, it became grey, it filled up the texbox.text with number from 0 to 1000 and after it finished processing then the label.text change to "Processing..." where it supposed to appear before the loop start.
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.

I have a problem to solve and not quite sure if the way I think is correct.
I have a main form class MainForm the class has got: a variable call Value and a label called LabelValue
Now I would like to automatically update LabelValue every time the Value changes his value
Is there any way to detect if the text in a label is longer than the label itself (assuming autosize is set to false)? I want to trim the text in a label so the last line is a finished sentence (everything after that sentence is removed). I hope you understand what I mean.
I want to go from this:"Hello. This is a test string. Most test stri..."
to"Hello. This is a test string."
Is there any easy way to do this?
I have a label that reads a random line from a text file and that string becomes the text for the label.
Now the problem; the label will only work if it is clicked because the event handler is click.What I need is this to work automatically at startup. In other words, it should change the label's text to the random string of the text file on startup of the application.
Here is my code.[code..]

I had an old program that I upgraded from VB6 to VB 2008. I am creating a program similar to it in VB 2008. There is a piece of code that I tried to enter into the program I am creating now from my old program. It tells the computer that if the label's text is a certain text that is on the clipboard, then the text size will be smaller.
If
LabelAbsent.Text = My.Computer.Clipboard.GetText Then
Label104.Font = VB6.FontChangeSize(Label10.Font, 8)
When I insert this code into my new program, it doesn't recognize the "VB6" in the code.
How can I get the same result in the program I am currently creating?
How can i change to bold a part of the label's text? e.g. "&Hello" will appear as: "Hello"
"Hello John" how can i make it appear as: "Hello John"?

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?
Basically I want to have a textbox (TextBox1) that when you enter an area code (ex. 512) that it will return the state (TEXAS) in the label (Label1). One way that I had been trying before was to reference from a text file the array that I am using which happens to be in the format of 512, TEXAS.
Sample -
TextBox1: 512
Label1: Texas
[Code]...
I would like to use this for multiple area codes and have been unsuccessful in getting it to work.

In a piece of code I am writing I am trying to change the text of a label in my form based on a timer. I have MANY other labels that are all updating in their own subs and when I try to add any new labels(in any sub) to update it wont. I am using Label.Text = counter where counter is a string that is changing. I have tried refreshing the form, Label.refresh() Label1.Update()....The only thing I think it could be is that the redraw is being held up by other calculations on the cpu. How can I make the label text change and update properly?
