>>i have an app that performs some system functions. the app contains a single form that has a start an exit button. it also has a label that is used to indicate the apps progress. the length of the label caption can vary greatly. the label can only be so wide (obviously not wider than the form), so it may have to be multi lined. i am having a hard time making the label visually appealing, and the correct size. how is a good way of setting the label properties when the caption size may vary greatly? how also should i set the caption: should i use chr(13) to go to next line?l

>You may use Label.Autosize=.T. Also, use Label.Alignment property. If you set Label.Wordwrap=.T., you don't need in CHR(13) to get multiple lines.
