Determine the font style of a label control

[sly9er]

Hello All,

Does anyone know how to capture and save the font style of a label control.
(FontStyle.Bold , FontStyle.Itali c, FontStyle.Under line)

I need to be able to save the font style and have it reapplied when I reopon my form.

I know how to "reapply" it when I open the form again. I just need help getting the original value for saving purposes.

Thanx in advance for any help.

Capture and store the font of the Label using Label.Font...

Then you can determine the styles of the font such as using FontObject.Font Family

To get the style you can check for underline FontObject.Unde rline

something like that

ThatThatGuy,

YOU ARE THE MAN!!!

I have been searching on this topic for 3 days.

Thank you so much!

So if anyone else is having this issue, here is the fix.

Get the style propertie after after the font dialog button click. (OK or Cancel).

If FontDialog1.Fon t.Underline = True Then
MsgBox("underli ne")// replace this with your own process
End If

This was so elusive, but now I can us it for Bold, Underline, Italic, Strikout, and all the possible combinations.

Sweet. Now I can complete my script.

Whoo Hoo!
