Ok, my code is being weird and i don't why... (no scoffing for me using VB i chose this language for this project because of the ease to connect to a MS Access DB)

I've got a Dynamic control,
Code:
Dim eventlabels As Label()
Code:
eventlabels = New Label(currentevents.Length - 1) {} 'define array size
For x As Integer = 0 To eventlabels.Length - 2
    eventlabels(x) = New Label
    Select Case currentevents(x).getEventDate
         Case datearray(0)
               gpbSun.Controls.Add(eventlabels(x))   'adding labels to
         Case datearray(1)                                  'correct groupbox
               gpbMon.Controls.Add(eventlabels(x))
         Case datearray(2)
               gpbTues.Controls.Add(eventlabels(x))
         Case datearray(3)
               gpbWed.Controls.Add(eventlabels(x))
         Case datearray(4)
               gpbThur.Controls.Add(eventlabels(x))
         Case datearray(5)
               gpbFri.Controls.Add(eventlabels(x))
         Case datearray(6)
               gpbSat.Controls.Add(eventlabels(x))
    End Select
    With eventlabels(x)                            'setting properities of labels
          .Size = New System.Drawing.Size(12, 12)
          .Text = currentevents(x).getEvent
          .Font = New System.Drawing.Font("Microsoft Sans Serif", 8.25!, System.Drawing.FontStyle.Regular, System.Drawing.GraphicsUnit.Point, CType(0, Byte))
          .AutoSize = True
          .Hide()
          .Enabled = True
          .Visible = True
          .Location = New System.Drawing.Point(10, 15000)
          .Show()
    End With
    AddHandler eventlabels(x).Click, AddressOf EventLabelHandler
Next
now for whatever reason the .font isn't changing when the form displays... i pulled that line straight out of the default define (created by the compiler.. ok well IDE) for another label i have on the form... anyone have a clue as to why this wouldn't change the font property... In addition the .location doesn't change no matter what i set the new draw point to.

help is much appreciated
