Rm,

Look for the help file for the control. Mine is
"rtfbox98.chm". It explains the different possibilities for setting the font for all text of selected text.

Thanks,
Dan

>That works fine while I'm developing, but I use multiple fonts in my applications and I also have some text that programmitically merges into the control and I need to beable to control that font. It's not always the same. I currently have the control defaulting to Times Roman, but I need to be able to change it on the fly.
