Is there anyway i can make something like a marquee in Vb??

Do you mean scrolling text? If so then you would either put your text in a Label or draw it using GDI+ and use a Timer to change the location over time.

what i have done now is simply changing the label setbounds as it goes..
is it possible to have the text in the label moving like let say from right to left???

This is the code I posted in that thread to move the Label from right to left:

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    'Start the Label at the far right of the Panel.
    Me.Label1.Left = Me.Panel1.Width
 
    Me.Timer1.Start()
End Sub
 
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
    'Move the Label to the left.
    Me.Label1.Left -= 10
 
    If Me.Label1.Right <= 0 Then
        'Start again.
        Me.Label1.Left = Me.Panel1.Width
    End If
End Sub

What do you suppose you would have to change to make it go left to right? Think first, ask questions later.
