Hi,

I have a string for example str = "abc&de"

When I try to put this string into a label, the & character disappears.
How can I stop this from happening?
What about for other special characters?


Cheers
 
Hi WAkthar,

You need to set the UseMnemonic property to false or &<character> will be translated to underscore and a short-cut key.
 
Other option and maybe more universal, as a button doesn't have the use
UseMnemonic property, is to put two & in the string.

for example str = "abc&&de"
