I have a label that is keeping a running total. I have a clear button that I want to be able to clear out that label as well as reset the the running total back to 0. right now I have it set to clear the label but it doesn't reset the running total back to 0.

label.Text = String.Empty

label.Text = "0"

Hope that helps

when I go to put in a new number to start a new running total it is still continuing from where I left off. say I left off at 7, then I hit the clear button. When I go to put a 3 in my label shows 10, b/c it still has the 7 in memory I guess.

Show us the code that you're using (not just the code that clears the label)

Here's the code. Thanks...

Reset all your counter variables as well?

   Private Sub btnClear_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnClear.Click  
        'clear all entries  
        lblFullTimeNewCarsSold.Text = String.Empty  
        lblFullTimeUsedCarsSold.Text = String.Empty  
        lblPartTimeNewCarsSold.Text = String.Empty  
        lblPartTimeUsedCarsSold.Text = String.Empty  
        TextBox1.Text = String.Empty  
  
         totalfn = 0
         totalfu = 0
         totalpn = 0
         totalpu = 0  
    End Sub
