property Items.CellItalic([Item as Variant], [ColIndex as Variant]) as Boolean

Retrieves or sets a value that specifies whether the cell should appear in italic.

TypeDescription
Item as Variant A long expression that indicates the item's handle.
ColIndex as Variant A long expression that indicates the cell's handle or the column's index, a string expression that indicates the column's caption or the column's key.
Boolean A boolean expression that indicates whether the cell should appear in italic.
Use ItemBold, ItemItalic, ItemUnderline or ItemStrikeOut property to apply different font attributes to the item. Use the CellItalic, CellUnderline, CellBold or CellStrikeOut property to apply different font attributes to the cell. Use the CellCaptionFormat property to specify an HTML caption. Use the ConditionalFormats method to apply formats to a cell or range of cells, and have that formatting change depending on the value of the cell or the value of a formula.

The following VB sample makes italic the focused cell:

With ComboBox1.Items
    .CellItalic(.FocusItem, 0) = True
End With

The following C++ sample makes italic the focused cell:

#include "Items.h"
CItems items = m_combobox.GetItems();
items.SetCellItalic( COleVariant( items.GetFocusItem() ), COleVariant( (long)0 ), TRUE );

The following C# sample makes italic the focused cell:

axComboBox1.Items.set_CellItalic(axComboBox1.Items.FocusItem, 0, true);

The following VB.NET sample makes italic the focused cell:

With AxComboBox1.Items
    .CellItalic(.FocusItem, 0) = True
End With

The following VFP sample makes italic the focused cell:

with thisform.ComboBox1.Items
	.DefaultItem = .FocusItem
	.CellItalic( 0, 0 ) = .t.
endwith

Note: The intersection of an item with a column defines a cell. Each cell is uniquely represented by its handle. The cell's handle is of HCELL type, that's equivalent with a long type. All properties of Items object that have two parameters Item and ColIndex, refer a cell.

The following lines are equivalents and each of them changes the bold font attribute of the first cell on the first item.

With ComboBox1
    .Items.CellBold(, .Items.ItemCell(.Items(0), 0)) = True
    .Items.CellBold(.Items(0), 0) = True
    .Items.CellBold(.Items(0)) = True
    .Items.CellBold(.Items.ItemByIndex(0)) = True
    .Items.CellBold(.Items.ItemByIndex(0), 0) = True
    .Items.CellBold(.Items(0), ComboBox1.Columns(0).Caption) = True
End With
