   Hi again Liz,   
      
   This situation just got a bit more interesting:   
      
   I decided to restore a copy of the form that I was using a   
   few days before the problem started, and the easiest way to   
   do that was to sit down at our server. (Which, by the way,   
   runs Win 2000 Pro, and is run peer to peer. It is a "server"   
   in the sense that it is not used as a workstation.)   
      
   The screen looked as it should but when I grabbed the mouse   
   there was no cursor motion.   
      
   It was a USB mouse, so I unplugged it, and set it in again.   
      
   Still it could not move the cursor...   
      
   Then I discovered that the keyboard was also seemingly   
   "dead."   
      
   So, at that point, I had no way to input to the system, but   
   it was working, in the sense that it provided access to its   
   networked drives.   
      
   I then powered it down (with the power button because I had   
   no other option) and when it booted up, I launched Paradox   
   on the system that was having the font problem.   
      
   With that, the fonts were fine...   
      
   So, this is still very recent, but as of now, it does appear   
   that the problem was caused by the server having put itself   
   into some sort of suspended animation.   
      
   I'll know more over the next few days.   
      
   All the best,   
   --
