How do I change a command button text font to bold at run time

[j2associates]

Hello all,

 

Based on certain situations, I want to change the Text on my command button to bold, similarly to the way non default values are bold in the property grid at design time.

 

When I try to change commandButton.Font.Bold it is read only. Thanks in advance for any ideas and/or suggestions.

button1.Font = new Font(button1.Font.Name, button1.Font.Size, FontStyle.Bold);

Changing command button text to bold at run time

 

button1.Font = new Font(button1.Font.Name, button1.Font.Size, FontStyle.Bold);

 

Thanks CAGS! This also works:

 

button1.Font = New Font(button1.Font, FontStyle.Bold)

True, there are several valid overloads, I'm just used to using the Compact Framework, which is very restrictive.
