when using StringBuilder to build-up a block of text (which is then assigned
to a Label control) is it possible to underline a portion of the text ?
it would seem that StringBuilder.A ppendFormat() would provide this
capability, but I can't find documentation on the proper format specifier to
underline a string ...
if this is possible, could someone please provide an example? thanks.

At first glance, the underline has always been a property of the Font,
not of the string of characters. As far as I can tell, the formating for
AppendFormat also does not include Font information, only things
like the currency symbol, decimal point, number of digits to the right
of the decimal point, and so on....
Underline is a decoration applied only when you output the data to a
display device, like a screen or monitor, it is not a part of the character
data.

hmmm .... if one is programmaticall y dynamically composing a section of text
that is meant to "flow freely" (be assigned to an auto-word-wrapping control
such as a Lable or a Span) then it's not possible to underline a sport of
that text ....

Hi,
Can a StringBuilder buffer be cleared? I'm confused. It is supposed that the StringBuilder class, can deal with all the memory allocation and deallocation needed for normal string operations (concatenations, replacements, etc.), because the String class just creates and destroys instances at an object level. I can't find a method to clear a StringBuilder object's buffer for reusing it (the idea is to avoid object...

Propably this subject is discussed over and over several times. I did google
it too but I was a little bit surprised what I read on internet when it
comes 'when to use what'.
Most of articles I read from different experts and programmers tell me that
their "gut feelings" for using stringBuilder instead of string concatenation
is when the number of string concatunation is more then N ( N varies between

I'm attempting to put together a string that will line up in columns and then insert this into a pdf form!

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
