May 8, 2010I'm saving the font of a label to a text file, and when I open the text file with my program, I want the label to have the same font that is listed within the text file. Now, the only problem I am having is that when I try to write the code for opening the text file, I can't set the font property of the label to a string. Label1.Font=[Font: Name=Microsoft Sans Serif, Size=9.75, Units=3, GdiCharSet=0, GdiVerticalFont= False]Here is what the code to open the text file and set the font of the label looks like:[code]The problem for the code happens at line 6. The error is: "Value of type 'String' cannot be converted to 'System.Drawing.Font'"ing each part of the font in the text file(i.e. Writing Font.Name and Font.Size properties in separate lines and then setting the label's font properties to each line accordingly), but I still get hit with the same error.
