how can I place both Bold & Italic togther

[shahare]

This is the code I entered according to websites I found some info:

 

========================================================

If ((toCheckBold = False) And (toCheckItalic = False)) Then

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

ElseIf ((toCheckBold = False) And (toCheckItalic = True)) Then

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

lblToChange.Font = New Font(lblToChange.Font, FontStyle.Italic)

ElseIf ((toCheckBold = True) And (toCheckItalic = False)) Then

lblToChange.Font = New Font(lblToChange.Font, FontStyle.Regular)

ElseIf ((toCheckBold = True) And (toCheckItalic = True)) Then

lblToChange.Font = New Font(lblToChange.Font, FontStyle.Regular)

lblToChange.Font = New Font(lblToChange.Font, FontStyle.Italic)

End If

========================================================

 

The problem is that the new definition for the font rams the old one.

How do I set them to be both Italic and Bold?

 

Thanks

lblToChange.Font = [color="Blue"]New [/color]Font(lblToChange.Font, [i]FontStyle.Italic [color="Blue"]Or [/color]FontStyle.Bold[/i])

That is because they are now flags, so when you say

 

FontStyle.Italic or FontStyle.Bold

 

you are using the binarmy math on those two, thus turning on both bits.

 

See this for further clarification.
