I'll do it - thanks.

You can get the whole Font structure (it does not include any color) with the
following

LOCAL pLFont IS _winLOGFONT

GetObject( SELF:oFont:Handle(), @pLFont )

pLFont will hold all the information about a FONT but it does not include color
information. Of course, the current implementation of the FONT Class does not
include a method or assign that allows to re-create a font based on a logical
font structure.

Very good - thanks. However, I've already decided to store font
parameters in a string, that is retrieved and parsed to be re-created
at runtime. It's working fine.

Best wishes for the new year,

Marcos
