    Font Bold

    Why is font bold a read only property.
    I create a new label control and want to set the font properties.
    How do I set the font properties of a newly created label control?

    lbl = New Label

    lbl.Font.Bold=T rue

          I don't know why

          It is something we got used to and the way that I know of is to set the font
          to a new font like: Label1.Font= New Font(...)

          hth,
