I was successfull in italicizing text in my textbox, but I am struggling with turning the italic format off to return the text to normal.

Code:
                With uf9_poststaff
                    .pin.Enabled = True
                    .dcard_id.Enabled = True
                    .dcard_no.Enabled = True
                    .dcard_id.Font.Italic = False
                    .dcard_id.ForeColor = RGB(0, 0, 0)
                    .dcard_no.Font.Italic = False
                    .dcard_no.ForeColor = RGB(0, 0, 0)
                    .pin.Font.Italic = False
                    .pin.Font.ForeColor = RGB(0, 0, 0)
                    mbevents = True
                
                    .vm_emplschedule.Enabled = True
                    .v_employeepp.Enabled = True
                End With

Is anyone able to reveal what I'm doing wrong?
 

Excel Facts

Highlight Duplicates
Home, Conditional Formatting, Highlight Cells, Duplicate records, OK to add pink formatting to any duplicates in selected range.
This instruction does not change to normal?
Code:
[COLOR=#0000ff].dcard_id.Font.Italic = False[/COLOR]
Does it send you an error?

Hi Dante,

No, it doesn't for some reason, which is why I posted. No errors thown either. It seems pretty simple which is why I am at odds as to why it isn't working. All other properties I change for these textboxes get applied, just not the italic.

Hello,

Just create a test file, a simple userform with a TextBox ...

And test again your exact code ...

It will allow to determine if your Excel version has a problem ... or not ...

Hope this will help

And if you play a little with the letter styles.
eg.


Code:
        'italic on
        Me.dcard_id.Font.Name = "Monotype Corsiva"
        '
        'italic off
        Me.dcard_id.Font.Name = "Tahoma"

The problem was not recreated in the test file. I was able to toggle between italic and non italic in the textbox without issue.

And if you play a little with the letter styles.

In my code, after the set the .font.italic = false, I added the line .font.name = "Monotype Corsiva".
The textbox remained in italics, but the font changed.

The problem is the font style

This does not work

Turn on:
Code:
        Me.dcard_id.Font.Name = "Monotype Corsiva"
        Me.dcard_id.Font.Italic = True

Turn off:
Code:
        Me.dcard_id.Font.Name = "Monotype Corsiva"
        Me.dcard_id.Font.Italic = False


This works:
Turn on:
Code:
        Me.dcard_id.Font.Name = "Tahoma"
        Me.dcard_id.Font.Italic = True

Turn off:
Code:
        Me.dcard_id.Font.Name = "Tahoma"
        Me.dcard_id.Font.Italic = False


Then use another font style

This worked for me:

Instead of Me.TextBox19.Font.Italic = False, the Me.TextBox19.FontItalic = False code worked fine. Just remove the dot between Font and Italic.

Hope to help
