Hi all,

I am developing an application in vb . I am able to resize
label or textbox on the vb form at runtime but text on the label or textbox
is not automatically adjusting to the new label or textbox size .

I need some suggestions or vb code to solve this problem.

Kindly reply me as soon as possible.

Any Kind of help is appreciable.

this will help you

Private Sub Text1_Change()
Dim a As Integer
a = Len(Text1.Text)

If a > 7 Then
Text1.Width = Text1.Width + 100
End If

End Sub

What version of VB?
How are you resizing the controls at runtime?
What do you mean that the text is not adjusting? What is not happening that
you expect?

Have you thought of using an Image control instead?

1) Use a picturebox, print some test to it.
2) Set Image1.Picture = Picture1.Image
3) Image1.Stretch = True

Balu,

You need to look at the Font Property (txtControl.Font.Size = 13.5).
Labels and Textboxes don't automatically adjust the font to match their
size.
Also, if you need to adjust the size of Comboboxes, they ARE automatically
adjusted by the font.
I'm sure someone here can further elaborate.
