I wanted to have multiple color for text in single label controller

e.g.

label1.Text = " $ 480.00 "

What I want is character $ in Red color and other digits or character after $ in color blue.

I cannot have separate labels for digits and $.

You can't really have this in a single winforms textbox. You either need to use a richtextbox, or you need to override the paint event in the original textbox. If you were using WPF, you could use a TextBlock, and have different runs to get the desired effect.
