Thanks to all for your help. I did look at the Delphi 5 help but there is no mention that you need to surround the style types with brackets.

I am creating a simple paint program for an application. I need to be able to turn on and off the Bold property of the font. Here is my code: If SpBtnBold.Down then Image.Canvas.Font.Style := fsBold ; When doing a syntax check I get this error message: [Error] GraphWin.pas(356): Incompatible types: 'TFontStyles' and 'TFontStyle' What am I doing wrong? Also, looking in the help text I see the style fsBold but I don't know how to 'UnBold' my font. What should I use to reverse this style? Thanks in advance!
