Where are you stuck? Add another label.

What tablelayout? Where was that in your question? So some code that demonstrates your problem.

Add another column to the table layout (and adjust span in other row if necessary) or put a panel, a flow layou or another table Inside the cell then you will be able to have both. Nothing complicate.

tablelayoutpanel in windows form.. i don't have any code. i want code.

The TableLayoutPanel is, I believe a Microsoft misstep. I have never used it although I'm sure that some CP members have. A panel that changes its size is not something that I desire in a Windows Form. I'd drop the TableLayoutPanel design for a label-label-textbox design. That way you have complete control of the contents of your form.

Solution 1

Just add another Label beside the first Label and set its text property to "*".

Tools, what are they?

If you have problems adding two Labels, then simply add the asterisk to the first Label like...

"User Name *"

Just assign the Text to a Label with a asterisk as the last character. That's it. :)

Member 9671810 6-Jun-14 14:55pm

yeah but it won't color red

Tadit Dash (ତଡିତ୍ କୁମାର ଦାଶ) 6-Jun-14 15:01pm

Then go for two Labels.
