    i need my label to store a string variable in it, do you know i can create a custom variable for it.

    i mean for example if it's name is "StoredString" i can access it in my code by "label1.StoredString" just like "Label1.text" or something like that.

    What you need to do is extend the Label class (i.e. make a new class derived from the Label class that includes the new property you want to add).

    Here's an article that describes the procedure:

    Thanks for pvdg42's help.

    Hi soorena12,

    Based on your issue, I suggest you can try the pvdg42's suggestion check your issue in your side.

    If it still could not help you solve this issue, I suggest you can tell me which kind of application you create the label in the VS IDE?

    What language you use to create for your application?

    If you have any update message about your issue, please tell us.
