Hi all,

I need to create a form that allows the user to select a font,  
including style and color. Anybody have any pointers on this? I would  
like to do the usual thing of having a list of font names, sizes,  
italic/bold check boxes, and color selector along with a sample. I was  
unable to find anything obvious to get me started, so any help is  
appreciated.

Thanks in advance…
