I'm trying to recall something from my brain from 6 years ago but I can't find it and the standard searches aren't bringing me joy.
I have a label like this:
Hello, this is my label and the value of the thing is: #value#. The label continues for a while here.
I need to update #value# in this instance with something from a database, however I can't remember how to without re-writing all the text again in the code. I know there's a way to do it, does anyone know this?
Thanks in advance!
If you are replacing existing text in the label, something like:
Dim myValueFromDatabase As String = "" ' Get the value from the database here
myLabel.Text = myLabel.Text.Replace("#value#", myValueFromDatabase)
Alternatively, you could use string interpolation:
Dim myValueFromDatabase As String = "" ' Get the value from the database here
myLabel.Text = $"Hello, this is my label and the value of the thing is: {myValueFromDatabase}. The label continues for a while here."
$"Hello, this is my label and the value of the thing is: {value}. The label continues for a while here."
