   Font changes on form...?

   Howdy,   
      
   I thought that I was losing my mind, but...   
      
   A few minutes ago, I launched P9, and opened a form that I   
   use every working day.   
      
   I saw immediately that it was displaying with a font in many   
   fields that was different from the font specified in the   
   design of the form.   
      
   I then launched the form on another system, and it looked   
   fine.   
      
   The font that was supposed to display was Arial, but on the   
   machine with the problem it displayed with Courier New.   
      
   Next, I opened Microsoft Word to see if I could type   
   something using Arial, and indeed, I could.   
      
   Back in Paradox, I looked at the properties of the form,   
   and, as it should, it showed the font as Arial.   
      
   When I ran the form after looking at the properties, it   
   appeared as it should. And, with that, I thought the problem   
   solved...   
      
   But, about an hour later, it happened again.   
      
   I found that by relaunching Paradox, I could get the proper   
   font, but this does seem rather weird.   
      
   Might have any suggestions about what could cause such a   
   thing?   
      
   Many thanks,   
   --   
   Kenneth
