I would like to be able to create a brand new text object from an existing
text object, the only difference being that the new text object has a
different font.  Right now, I am re-defining a selection of text objects on
the map by setting the system font and using Alter Object on each selected
text object in conjunction with CurrentFont().  The problem is, although it
resets most of the font attributes of the text object, it won't reset the
font size.

So, now I've tried to create all new text objects with the same attributes,
but I've found it difficult to mimic the original object's offset,
rotatation etc.  Has anyone else worked through such a problem before and
come up with code to create a new text object with ALL of the attributes of
an existing text object ?

Thanks for any thoughts and comments you might have on this matter.
