thanks very much!
found a big bug... dang it! it seem on XP I can't go to the windows\fonts directory and choose a font. it will allow you to choose a font that you might have someplace else. Vista doesn't seem to have this limitation.... looking into it.
[edit] it looks like I will have not use the system file requester. In the mean time choosing a font not in windows\fonts works just fine.
