Hi _M4D_M0F0_,

I'm writing the following code for your reference.

        Me.TextBox1.Text = "aaaaaaaaaaaabbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb" + Environment.NewLine
        Me.TextBox1.Text += "bbadfadfasdfdsfdsfdfdfsafdsfd" + Environment.NewLine

        Dim str As String = String.Format("0/{0}", TextBox1.Lines.Count.ToString())
        Me.Label1.Text = str


If you have any problem regarding the code , please feel free to let me know.

I think you want partial Text of TexBox highlighted when the form is loaded. You can set the SelectionStart property and SelectionLength property to achieve the goal.

Here is the code:

            Me.TextBox1.Text = "How's your problem now?"+Environment.NewLine;
            Me.TextBox1.Text +="Yes, it's Ok now. Thank you very much";
            Me.TextBox1.SelectionStart = 0;
            Me.TextBox1.SelectionLength = 5;

wht do i put code under....textbox...label or the load button

You can put the code in the place as you need.

For example, if you want the label to show the string when the form is loading, you can put this in the Load event handler of the Form. Else if you want the label to show the string when the button is clicked, you can put the code in a button clicked event handler.

If you want the text in the Lable change when you input in the TextBox, then you may need to put the code in the KeyPress or TextChanged event handler of the TextBox.

Feel free to let me know if you have any further problems or concerns.
