How is that a problem? Where is the question? What does "name the length" mean?

Do you mean you want to enter the values in a text box and then generate the rectangle based on what they type in?

Exactly how you do this depends to a large extent on how you are drawing your rectangle. If you are handling the paint event of a UserControl, then it's pretty easy - just use the Graphics.DrawString method to add the text (once you have offset the actual rectangle far enough away).

If you are doing it differently, then it may take more work, but we would need a lot more detail about how you are doing it.
