Input and output formatting

[Guest waszer]

I am new to VB, last quarter I had my first VB6 class, now they switched to .Net.

 

We used Picture Boxes to output formatted text ect... now what can we use beside label/text boxes?

 

Also, is there an easy way to align text within multiple labels? Even with the TextAlign ability, it seems impossible to get them to line up. An example would be, I have 5 items I want to enter, I would have 5 labels with 5 text boxes beside each label. I want the text within the labels to be right justified (aligned top to bottom), instead I get at best a couple of labels that look good, but then there will be a couple labels that look way out of alignment no matter what I do.

 

I hope that there is something simple I am missing, and thank you in advance.

You can draw 5 labels the same size on the form, then set each of their TextAlign properties to Right, that should work fine.

 

As far as outputting formatted text is concerned, what kind of formatting? For a GUI app your best bet is a textbox or richtextbox, otherwise make a console app.
