pcsoft.us.windevCopyright 2026, PC SOFT2 Dec 2015 09:21:00 Z1 Dec 2015 16:56:00 ZWould like to offer the user the ability to select his/her own font rather than the default. If it was a one time only event, easily done by using FontSelect(): gvDefaultFont is Font = FontCreate("Tahoma",10,iItalic) (global variable in project init) UserFont is Font Res = FontSelect(UserFont,True,DefaultFont) IF Res THEN BtnAdd..Font = UserFont ELSE BtnAdd..Font = gvDefaultFont END I would like to store the UserFont in a database field so we can reuse it... like this: IF FileName.UserFont THEN BtnAdd..Font = FileName.UserFont ELSE BtnAdd..Font = gvDefaultFont END Does anybody know what type of field to use (string, int, buffer... ?) and how to get the UserFont into that field?
