Strikeout text

Is it possible to strikout text after the form has gone through its initial load? When i tried to change the property with this line...

button1.Font.Strikeout = true;

I got a compiler error which said...

"Property or indexer 'System.Drawing.Font.Strikeout' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only"

any help would be greatly appreciated

You cannot change anything about a font in a control (at any time).

However, you can replace the font.

Code Snippet

Font fnt = new Font(button1.Font, FontStyle.Strikeout);

button1.Font = fnt;
