Add a line break in label.text

[Guest]

I am learning how to program using Visual Studio 2005 (I chose Visual Basic
to start).

My question is:

I have a sentence which I want to split in two. I would like half the
sentence on the first line, and the other half right under it, on the second
line. How can I accomplish this feat?

P.S. Right now I can only get the label to show the sentence to me all on
one line.

Label1.Text = "He thrusts his fists" & vbCrLf & "Against the Posts"

....which only works with explicitly entered text...

If you wanted to wrap automatically following a given number of
letters/words in a string variable, the coding would be a bit more
complicated, I think. Probably beyond my current skill level. A simple
Google search was sufficient to unearth this keyword...
