Italic

This property returns and sets the font style of the Font object to either italic or non-italic.

Syntax

object.Italic [= Boolean]

Parameters

object

Object expression that evaluates to a Font object.

Boolean

Boolean expression that specifies the font style. Following are the settings for Boolean:

True

Turns on italic formatting

False (default)

Turns off italic formatting

Remarks

The Font object is not directly available at design time. Instead, set the Italic property by selecting a control's Font property in the Properties window and choosing the Properties button. In the Font Style box of the Font dialog box, select either Italic or Bold Italic. At run time, however, set Italic directly by specifying its setting for the Font object.
