    Setting Text property of Label.

    I have done:
    Code:
    MyLabel.Text = "21 Ebberston Terrace" & vbCrLf & "Hyde Park" & vbCrLf & "Leeds" & vbCrLf & "LS6 4UA"
    Yes the text gets displayed with vbCrLf replaced with " " (space)...how to I multiline it?

    If you look at the label in the generated HTML it is simply a span tag. Therefore you need to use <br> (or <br /> if you are using XHTML) instead of vbCrLf as it doesn't automatically convert to HTML.

    Yea, it seems that is the case.
    I am amazed though that the Text property of the label doesn't automatically replace vbCrLf with <br>

    Yeah you would have thought it would seeing as the Text is always on an HTML page!
