Board index » Visual Studio » Display text

Visual Studio26
Is there an existing control for Visual Basic that allows

me to display text in that control, but also lets me append

text to it. The application I have in mind for this

control is something like a status page that updates with

new information without wiping out the previous info.

Thank you.

Just use a text box, and add to the text instead of just setting the text.



ie, do

textbox1.text += foo

instead of

textbox1.text = foo

For example a textbox. You can call its 'AppendText' method to append

text.

In VB.NET, I prefer using the '&=' operator when working with strings.
