| Hi Group:Wow, I am exhausted, I need help, I need a vacation, I need to quit, I need something, I thank you in advance for your help. I have a text that is wayyyyyy to long to fit inside the screen in a label. I need to find the way to wrap around the text within the label. I am using ASP.Net / VB.Net. Does anyone knows how to do this crazy thing? Thanks. |

| HTML wraps text unless you tell it otherwise.If for some reason you have text not wrapping, then somewhere you have a tag or CSS class or style that is making it not wrap.- Jeffhttp://weblogs.sqlteam.com/JeffS |

| I think is because there are not spaces in the text, so the label doesn't know where to stop. I try to eliminate the spaces but is not working with this code. Dim strCompanies.Replace(",", " ") strCompanies = Session("CompanyIDs") lblCompanies = strCompanies |

That is not valid code that you are showing! Don't you get an error when trying to run that?Dim strCompanies.Replace(",", " ") as StringstrCompanies = Session("CompanyIDs").ToString()lblCompanies.Text = strCompanies.Replace(","," ")Always declare data types for your variables, and always explicitly convert or cast things as the proper data type. This is the #1 most important rule when it comes to programming.Please consider reading a beginning Asp.net programming book so you can understand the basics of ASP.NET/VB/HTML programming.In addition: you should not store CSV strings in Session if you are storing multiple pieces of data; just store an array there. And, finally, be sure to check that the Session value is not NOTHING otherwise you will get a runtime error.- Jeffhttp://weblogs.sqlteam.com/JeffS |
