You can either use three labels or use a textbox and set the border property to none and the background colour to the same as the control that the textbox is sat upon.

Hope this helps,

If you only want to use one Label, you can insert "<br />" html tags after each line.

For Example:

Dim labelText As New StringBuilder
labelText.Append("Age: ")
labelText.Append(ageValue)
labelText.Append("<br />")
 
labelText.Append("Name : ")
labelText.Append(nameValue)
labelText.Append("<br />")
 
labelText.Append("Phone No: ")
labelText.Append(phoneNumberValue)
labelText.Append("<br />")
 
MyLabel.Text = labelText.ToString()
 
 

If you want to use three Labels, make sure you set each Label to have the style "display" element set to "block". This will force the label to display as a "block" instead of "inline"...which forces each label to appear on a new line. When Labels have a style with a display of block, you can set the width of the Label and it will properly display with that width...

Eg:

AgeLabel.Style.Remove("display")
NameLabel.Style.Remove("display")
PhoneNumberLabel.Style.Remove("display")
 
AgeLabel.Style.Add("display","block")
NameLabel.Style.Add("display","block")
PhoneNumberLabel.Style.Add("display","block")
 
AgeLabel.Text = "Age: " + ageValue.ToString()
NameLabel.Text = "Name : " + nameValue
PhoneNumberLabel.Text = "Phone No: " +  phoneNumberValue
 

Cheers!
