using RichTextBox Control:
The
traditional text box control is ideal for text entry at a given font and
size. RichTextBox Control allows the user to enter text with varying
fonts and sizes. Add the RichTextBox
control and the Common Dialog Control to the Toolbox by drawing them from the
component dialog box. Drag a
RichTextBox control, Common Dialog Control
and a Command Btton control in the form. Set the command button caption and name as font. A font dialog box can be opened only
through the Common Dialog control. The
Common Dialog control box will be invisible during run time. .Save the form and
the project. The project at the
