This code will display scroling text from left to right in Label.
First set timer Enable = True.
try this following code :

 vb.net Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
 Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
      label1.Text = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Right _
        (label1.Text, 1) & Microsoft.VisualBasic.Left _
        (label1.Text, Len(label1.Text) - 1)
    End Sub
 Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
      label1.Text = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Right _
        (label1.Text, 1) & Microsoft.VisualBasic.Left _
        (label1.Text, Len(label1.Text) - 1)
    End Sub

I don't like to correct anyone but you need to get away from vb6. To do it the net way

 Help with Code Tags 
 VB.NET Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
TextBox1.Text = TextBox1.Text.Substring(1) & TextBox1.Text.Substring(0, 1)
TextBox1.Text = TextBox1.Text.Substring(1) & TextBox1.Text.Substring(0, 1)

The first pram is the starting index (0 being the first character). If you omit the second pram then the rest of the string is used. So if the string is "012345" then TextBox1.Text.Substring(1) will return "12345".
The second pram is the length of what you want. In this case the second part Substring(0,1) is getting the first character. It will move the first character to the end of the string.

I'm not good at explaining but I hope you understand what I am trying to say.

If you want something cool, do this to the title bar and look at the task bar. You can do this to show what is happening in your program even it the application is not showing.

It is hard to understand how a cemetery can raise its burial rates and blame it on the cost of living.
