[=?Utf-8?B?Sm9uYXRoYW4=?=]

Hi, you can tell from this question that I'm new at this...

I have 2 label controls, each with a different font (for effect...). The
problem is that I cannot get the 2 words to read as a continuation. That is,
the 2 label controls extend beyond the text that they contain.

Is there a way to butt together the text in these two controls?

Many thanks,
Jonathan

I think you'll need to do a lot of fiddling. Is it always the same text or
can it change? You may have to trap the text changed event and move the
labels programmatically.
Could you get the effect you want using a small RichTextBox where you can
format the text.
