Hi
You can create any control at run time and add from parent control same as form(this) for example:

C#

Label label = new Label()
{
    Name = "lblTest",
    Size = new Size(100, 20),
    ForeColor = Color.Black,
    Location = new Point(50, 50),
    Text = "Test"
};
this.Controls.Add(label);

Do be aware that a Label created with these parameters at run-time will result in nothing visible being shown on the Form or ContainerControl in which it is hosted.

You need to the set Text property I updated solution check it again please ;-) of course down vote is not good idea when you are wrong !

Member 1880403 9-Dec-13 8:56am

Sorry, but BillWoodruff is correct. By default, controls added at run time in this way are invisible. The simple one line addition needed to make your example work is to set Visible = true;

fyi: I did not down-vote your response.
