label objects?

Using context menu, i want to be able to right click and add a label and name the label what ever i want and be able to move it where i want. is this posible? if so please explain. thanks in advance!

You can add items to the contextmenustrip programatically.

[highlight="VB.Net"]ContextMenuStrip.Items.Add("Bla bla bla")[/highlight]

Now use the appropriate event and insert an appropriate object rather than just "Bla bla bla" as string. It has further options - use intellisense.

I think he wants a function that when he clicks in a contextmenustrpit's button a new label will appear and he should be able to rename it...

[highlight="VB.Net"] Dim lbl As New Label With {.Text = "Blaaa", .Location = New Point(5, 5)}

Me.Controls.Add(lbl)[/highlight]

On Right Click event:
[highlight=VB.Net]Dim txt = InputBox("Label text:", "Add a label")
Dim newLbl As New Label With {.Text=txt, .Location = New Point(MousePosition.X,MousePosition.Y)}
Me.Controls.Add(newLbl)
[/highlight]

thanks so much guys
