Paul,

Set autosize = .f. then populate the label with appropriate text and then set autosize .T..

I subclassed the label and did this automatically on the assign method as it is a known problem with certain fonts/sizes and sometimes the field will autosize and just miss off the start/end of the label caption depending upon what fonts are used. If you use the assign to size the label then you can size the label exactly by using the sysmetric() settings for the font you are using.

Subject: Autosize and labels

Hi all

I have a label which is has Autosize set to .T. but when I change the caption at runtime it does not resize properly - any ideas how I can force it to do so?

Many thanks
