Changing the font for a label programmaticall y

I've got an ASP VS 2005 project. I'm trying to figure out how to programmaticall y change the font of a label. From memory, this was done easily in 2003, but the Font property is read-only.

Can someone please show me how to change the font programmaticall y?

Thanks

It appears to be through the .Name. By changing the .Name property...you change the font.

Hello, I have a simple form with some input boxes. After validation if one fails, then I would like to at the top of the page say something like "The following fields in red are required" and then change the label in front of the textbox or dropdown list to red... is this possible with asp.net? It seems you can only put a RequiredFieldValidator on the page, and if it fails validation then that text is displayed... ? Thanks

Hi All; I, like others, have been frustrated with designing forms that look and flow the same in both IE and Firefox. They simply did not scale the same. I have discovered, to my chagrin, that IE7 does not seem to offer any way to control the font size of a text input element.

Is there a way to / or a mathematical formula to see if a font size is 'too big' for a label. I have a label that is docked to 'fill' a form, and I want to resize that font based on the width and height of the label. So far I have something like this on the Form_Resize event: Label2.Font = New Font(Label2.Font.Name, _ Label2.Size.Height - 100, Label2.Font.Style)

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
