Well i hope you all enjoyed my tutorial. I uploaded my tutorial source for educational purposes, If care to use this in your application (RTM) please leave credits.

    

public void NewsBar(Label lbl, String Text, int Speed = 50, Boolean State = true)

{

	System.Windows.Forms.Timer NewsTimer = new System.Windows.Forms.Timer();

	if (State) NewsTimer.Start(); else NewsTimer.Stop(); 

	NewsTimer.Interval = Speed;

	NewsTimer.Tick += (a, b) =>

	{

		lbl.Text = Text;

		lbl.Location = new Point(lbl.Location.X - 5, lbl.Location.Y);

		if (lbl.Location.X < -100)

		{ lbl.Location = new Point(this.Width - lbl.Width + 100, lbl.Location.Y); }

	};

}

    

	Now with this, you can simply do multiple Labels, as its creating a new instance of a Timer

	NewsBar(label1, "This is an Example News Bar..");

	Want to disable it? its simple, you can simply use a Checkbox for the last param, to check the state to true / false

	NewsBar(lable1, "This is an Example News Bar #2..", 50, checkBox1.Checked);
