  Hi,
  =20
  I just had a look at msdn.microsoft.com and this is the example they =
provide:
  =20
HWND hwnd;                // owner window
HDC hdc;                  // display device context of owner window

CHOOSEFONT cf;            // common dialog box structure
static LOGFONT lf;        // logical font structure
static DWORD rgbCurrent;   // current text color
HFONT hfont, hfontPrev;
DWORD rgbPrev;

// Initialize CHOOSEFONT
ZeroMemory(&cf, sizeof(cf));
cf.lStructSize =3D sizeof (cf);
cf.hwndOwner =3D hwnd;
cf.lpLogFont =3D &lf;
cf.rgbColors =3D rgbCurrent;
cf.Flags =3D CF_SCREENFONTS | CF_EFFECTS;

if (ChooseFont(&cf)=3D=3DTRUE) {
    hfont =3D CreateFontIndirect(cf.lpLogFont);
    hfontPrev =3D SelectObject(hdc, hfont);
    rgbCurrent=3D cf.rgbColors;
    rgbPrev =3D SetTextColor(hdc, rgbCurrent);
 .
 .
 .
}

  The only differences I can see is that:
  1.    They specify CF_SCREENFONTS, but you said you tried that
  2.    They ZeroMemory the CHOOSEFONT struct before use.

    Hi, Marc

    Thanks for your help, but it still doesn't work. I still get the =
same message. Can it be that I need to include some header files? I =
included windows.h and commdlg.h. Or maybe there is a problem with my =
Windows 200?

    Hi,

    =20

    I had a similar problem using the common font dialog in VB. As far =
as I can remember you have to specify a type of font to list using one =
of the flags otherwise Windows doesn't know which fonts to enumerate.

    =20

    CF_WYSIWYG, CF_PRINTERFONTS or CF_TTONLY

      Hi.

      I have a strange problem: I want to use ChooseFont API function to =
display font selection dialog. I wrote a procedure, compiled, but when I =
start the application and press choose font from the menu, I get the =
message: "There are no fonts instaled. Open Fonts folder in Control =
Panel to install fonts.". Of course, fonts are installed. I have Windows =
2000 and DevCpp 4.9.5.0. Can anyone tell me what could cause this? Here =
is the code I wrote to display font dialog:

      =20

      case WM_COMMAND:

                 switch(LOWORD(wParam))

                 {

                     case ID_FORMAT_FONT:

                     {

                         CHOOSEFONT chFont;

                         chFont.lStructSize=3Dsizeof(CHOOSEFONT);

                         chFont.hwndOwner=3Dhwnd;

                         chFont.lpLogFont=3D&lFont;

                         chFont.iPointSize=3D1;

                         =
chFont.Flags=3DCF_INITTOLOGFONTSTRUCT|CF_EFFECTS;

                         chFont.rgbColors=3DRGB(0,0,0);

                         chFont.nFontType=3DREGULAR_FONTTYPE;

                         if(!ChooseFont(&chFont))

                             MessageBox(hwnd,"Error in font =
dialog","Error",MB_OK|MB_ICONSTOP);

                     }

                     break;

                 }
