Hi there,

How can I assign a string to a piece of text which is something other than Normal font?

I want to assign a string to the 'less than or equal to sign', <=, which is symbol font.

If it was a normal character, like '<', I'd simply say:

dim sign as string
sign = "<"

But to get the 'less than or equal to sign" in a picturebox you need to write:

Form1.Picture1.Font = "symbol"
Form1.Picture1.Print " £ ";
Form1.Picture1.Font = "comic sans ms"

How can I make this a string?

I mean, you can just put:

dim sign as string
sign= Form1.Picture1.Font = "symbol"
Form1.Picture1.Print " £ ";
Form1.Picture1.Font = "comic sans ms"

Any ideas? Is it even possible?

Please help!

Thanks.
