Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation

[Darkness84]

The following line of code: this.lblImportFile.Font = new System.Drawing.Font("Tahoma", 8.25F); is throwing the following exception: {"Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation." } and I have no idea why. does anybody have any ideas?

Sorry forgot to mention I am using Visual Studio 2003 with .NET Framework 1.1

I have narrowed it down to an "Overflow or underflow in the arithmetic operation." but I still don't know why.

if you can catch the exception, show it with ToString() method. DO NOT USE MESSAGE PROPERTY ToString() shows everything there is, Message only gives a short one-line summmary. :)
