.NET Windows Forms in a Nutshell

Name

LinkArea

Synopsis

A LinkLabel class by default contains only one hyperlink attached to the entire text in the control. However, it is actually capable of supporting several links within the text.

A LinkArea value defines the index into the text string at which the hyperlink will Start, and the Length of the link. You can also determine whether the link is Empty.

If you only want one link, but one that does not encompass the entire text, you can assign to the LinkLabel.LinkArea. To add multiple areas, you need to use the LinkLabel.Links property.

public struct LinkArea {

// Public Constructors
