title: Why won't my C# label text value update?
body: <p>I have a c# program set up that is supposed to accept a quantity input if a checkbox is checked. It then multiplies the quantity by the price and updates the appropriate label with the total cost.</p>
  
  <p>However, when I run the program it does not update the label. I ran the debugger and the label's .text value in the system is correct but it still does not appear on the actual form.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a label property in Visual Studio that prevents changes from being rendered?</p>
  
  <p>here is the snippet responsible for updating the label.Text value</p>
  
  <pre><code> if (chkSesame.Checked)
      {
          intSesameQty = Convert.ToInt32(txtSesameQty.Text);
          decSesameTotal = intSesameQty * decBAGEL_PRICE;
          lblSesameSeedTotal.Text = decSesameTotal.ToString("c");
      }
  </code></pre>
