How to use LinkLabel?
-
Dear friends, I intend to use LinkLabels in my project. But I am toally jumbled with it because I am not getting the exact place where the actual link should be stored. I studied its properties like LinkArea, LinkData, Links and Link types. But I am totally entangled with it. I want to display a text and underlying link and connect it to webbrowser. the later part is easy coz' I know LinkLabel's event to handle. But Plz help me with above problem. Thanks in Advance..

Hello, The following might help you in achieving the desired: using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.ComponentModel; using System.Data; using System.Drawing; using System.Text; using System.Windows.Forms; namespace WindowsApplication1 { public partial class Form1 : Form { public Form1() { InitializeComponent(); } private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { this.linkLabel1.Text = "Register Online. Visit Microsoft. Visit MSN."; if (this.linkLabel1.Text.Length >= 45) { this.linkLabel1.Links[0].LinkData = "Register"; this.linkLabel1.Links.Add(24, 9, "www.microsoft.com"); this.linkLabel1.Links.Add(42, 3, "www.msn.com"); } } private void linkLabel1_LinkClicked(object sender, LinkLabelLinkClickedEventArgs e) { string target = e.Link.LinkData as string; if (null != target && target.StartsWith("www")) { System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(target); } else { MessageBox.Show("Item clicked: " + target); } } } } Regards, Dave

I am not getting what you are saying ? Are you facing difficulty in opening a web page when link button is clicked ? Use
Process.Startto start a new browser and also send URL to be opened.All C# applications should call Application.Quit(); in the beginning to avoid any .NET problems.- Unclyclopedia My Website | Ask smart questions

Thank You Sir. The code snippet you gave worked perfectly fine. So finally the "linkdata" is the attribute where we've to add the actual link.
