Hi,

I'm not sure if this is the correct subforum for ultralabels but i wasn't sure where it was, couldn't find Misc or Ultralabel forum.

the new styling of the forum looks sharp indeed, way to go. how ever it appears that i can't insert a image here.... it doesn't let me brawser for the image . i am using (IE8) - this is just FYI

anyway, i am expiriancing a wierd issue with a simple usage of ultralabel.

i have a simple forum with 2 ultragrids and 2 labels, each label is like a title for the grid.

when i load the forum and give the datasource for the grids i am also appending the number of the number of the rows for each label of its relevant grid. very basic stuff

here is my code :

ugMissing.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];
ugActive.DataSource = ds.Tables[1];
lblMis.Text = lblMis.Text + " (" + ds.Tables[0].Rows.Count.ToString() + ")";
lblMis.Refresh();
lblActive.Text = lblActive.Text + " (" + ds.Tables[1].Rows.Count.ToString() + ")";
lblActive.Refresh();

the problem is that while the second label does refresh and show the "(##)" at the end of its string, the first label does not. i can't understand why.
debugging line by line with F10 shows that the lblMis.Text does append the "(##)" to its end but it does not display it on screen, dispite the Refres();
I've replaced the UltraLabel control with the default WinForms Label control and set the name of the control object to the same name that the UltraLabel was - lblMis, and didn't change anything in my code, and the display did show the "(##)" which it didn't before when the control was UltraLabel. what i dont understand is how come the second ultralabel worked fine and the first did not. ofcourse i can leave it as a basic WinForm label , i was just wondering why it happens ?

i've also tried

lblMis.Text = lblMis.Text + "xxx"; // (" + dsResourceVScdis.Tables[0].Rows.Count.ToString() + ")";
lblMis.Refresh();

not working as well.

any ideas?
