Is there a control style to make labels span multiple lines, because I am not seeing one..  And I would think that, since the control itself is just displayed text, it would have something like that....

You can use CR/LF/CRLF in a label to make it move to the next line. There is no default way to make a long string for a label break up into multiple lines, like an edit.

The easiest way to do it would be to use an edit control with the $ES_READONLY.

The next best thing would be to check out this thread I posted in a while back

 

Which will measure the string against the control and break it up into an array, each row representing a line.

MattHiggs,

Take a look at my StringSize UDF (the link is in my sig) - it allows you to wrap a long string into a given width or determine what size label you need to fit the string.
