Create a Label with code

[Ralme360]

Hello people!

I am trying to create a label using code. But I don't konw how.

I tried to use some code like:

Dim lbl_new as New Label
lbl_new.Location = New Point(10, 10)

but that didn't work.

Can anyone point me to a tutorial or explain how I can do this?

Anyone?

as you did not explain what you are trying to achieve, or in what application, difficult for anyone to give answer

Oh, well i was just trying to just create a normal label with code instead of having to make it in the design mode. Like when I press a button a label with like the text from a textbox I have.

And the application is Word 2007, but I just use the Visual Basic function not Word itself. Kinda hard to explain since I'm not too good with this stuff.

So just create a label with code is the only thing I want. Thankful for any help

is this on a userform?

if so it should be something like

Set newlbl = Me.Controls.Add("Forms.Label.1", "mylabel", True)
newlbl.Caption = "this is a test"
newlbl.Left = 20
newlbl.Top = 40

this works, much easier to make the labels in design mode

Yes thank you! That was exactly what I wanted
