So, HI!

How do i do the following thing:
I want the text in label1 to change every time I press i button. For example:

String text = "hello", "elephant", "pig", "dog";
<pre>private void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Label1.Text = text;
}

so the first time that i press the button it shows hello, next time elephant, next time pig and the last time dog and then hello again etc...

Thank you in advance! :laugh:

Try something like -

int count=0;
private void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (count > text.Length)
    {
           count = 0;
    }
    Label1.Text = text[count++];
}
