Reduce the number of lines of code

Question

Is there any way to compress this code? What this does is after a period of 100ms the timer ticks and it posts the next letter. Is there a smaller code version of this? I just want to make it type out text one character at a time. ``` private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (textBox2.Text == "Hmm... You right there?") { textBox2.Text = "Hmm... You right there??"; timer1.Stop(); } if (textBox2.Text == "Hmm... You right there") { textBox2.Text = "Hmm... You right there?"; } if (textBox2.Text == "Hmm... You right ther") { textBox2.Text = "Hmm... You right there"; } if (textBox2.Text == "Hmm... You right the") { textBox2.Text = "Hmm... You right ther"; } if (textBox2.Text == "Hmm... You right th") { textBox2.Text = "Hmm... You right the"; } if (textBox2.Text == "Hmm... You right t") { textBox2.Text = "Hmm... You right th"; } if (textBox2.Text == "Hmm... You right ") { textBox2.Text = "Hmm... You right t"; } if (textBox2.Text == "Hmm... You right") { textBox2.Text = "Hmm.…

Accepted Answer

```
string fullText = "Hmm... You right there??";
int currentPos = 0;

private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    currentPos++;
    textBox2.Text = fullText.Substring(0, currentPos);

if (currentPos == fullText.Length)
        timer1.Stop();
}
```
