    Line Breaks in Label

    Can i put a line break in a label ??

    Ie. I want to have

    Name:
    Address:
    Address2:
    .....

    Listed like that instead of having it wrap, can I have a multiline label ?

    Thanks.

    Use a carriage-return and line-feed ("\r\n") or vbcrlf in the text property
    such as:
    this.Label1.Tex t="Address1:\r\ nAddress2";
