    fonts in Visual Studio

    I have a bunch of custom fonts installed on my system.
    For instance if I look at the font drop-down in word pad
    I see about 90 fonts, but if I build an app using VS.Net,
    add a label, and try to change the font - I'm only given
    a choice of about 20 - the "standard" fonts which are
    installed with the OS (XP).

    How can I get the rest of my fonts in this box?

    Thanks.

      RE: fonts in Visual Studio

      Hi Jack,

      Sorry to misunderstand your problem. You problem is that you can not choose
      as many fonts in VS.NET as in Word. Can you enumerate the fonts you can
      find in WordPad and the fonts you can find in label's Font properties in
      VS.NET So that I can narrow down your issue more quickly.

      I look forward to hearing from you!
