Hi Jason, It's not because you're using an HTML textfield, is it?
Try tracing the test_txt.htmlText property after you're setting it - it might be doing something odd like wrapping it in a '<font face="Times New Roman">' or something internally, even although you've set the Textformat.font to Wingdings. You might have to do: test_txt.htmlText='<font face="Wingdings">some text here</font>'; or something similar to get it to work. HTH, Ian On 8/31/06, Merrill, Jason <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Alain, I understand, I already said essentially the same thing when I said: >>> is no mytextfield.font property. Only TextFormat.font and... He suggested I trace the font on the textfield, which is not the same thing, and I was responding to that comment. It's tracing "Wingdings" on the textfield's TextFormat.font, it's just not rendering Wingdings on the screen.
