[RESOLVED] [2005] Displaying text on form

I need to display text on the form (not a msgbox). Is that possible?
A large text box would be acceptable if it's background could be made transparent with no border, but it seems that is not allowed.

A label maybe?

I'm going to assume that for some reason a label is not an option, but it is important that you specify why!
If a label is indeed not an option, you can look into the Graphics.DrawString method (use the forms Paint event and the "e" PaintEventArgs object).

Lable? Ok. Can that be populated programmatically?

Lable1 = myString
or
Lable1.text = myString

Yes, and its background can be set to transparent.

Thank you both, but how do I get the "String" from the code to label?

What "String" from the code?

Code:

---

dim mystring as string = "hello there!"

label1.text = mystring

---

nevermind, got it.
