>Can someone please tell me how you go about changing the font properties of the Rich Text Active X control programmatically. As in changing the font name, font size, etc...

It has a .Font member object, properties of which are what you need.

with this.font
   .bold=.t.
   .name="Georgia"
   .size=11
endwith

Debugger may not know all of these properties, but intellisense does. Do the poor man's builder - open your rtf subclass for editing, select it

aselobj(a)
ox=a(1)
ofo=ox.font
ofo.   

...and the dot in the last line is where the intellisense will kick in. Then just copy what you've done in command window into your method.
