SQL

Two ways:

1.Escape it with another ampersand (&&)
    put 2 ampersand symbol continuosly.

2.Set UseMnemonic for that label to false, then all ampersands for that label will be taken literally and you don't need to double them.

Hi,

you can type whatever symbol you want in label property Text, so you will get conversion in html

ex: if you write in ' in the property window. you will get "e in html..etc..

thanks

Hi,

I think you facing this problem in Windows app:

If you use & symbol in front of any text/alphabet , then works like a shortcut for that button. So use && (double &) to display & in any label or button control.

ex:

C#

Label1.Text="Thanks && Regards";
