Question

I have a label control that is bound to a object collection like

 lblUser.DataBindings.Add(new Binding("Text", UserCollection, "UserName"));

This works fine and the Username on the label. But I need to display the Username as
User Name : UserName

How do I add the static “User Name :” part in front of the bound value on the label ?

Answer 1

The way I did is that I created a custom label by extending the Label class and added an override to the text property. And added this to the text property

set{ Text = "User name :" + value }
get { return value;}

This solved my issue
