Cool. That was actually what I was looking for. I must admit that I am not 
absolutely up to date with Gorm on my machines. I'll update later and check 
what it can do for me.

Probably it's the better solution if you want to have interfaces being able to 
handle different lengths ans sizes of texts. I don't know, haven't tried it, 
yet. For the time being I stick with Gorm, as it does what I need :-)
As a reply to David's last posting: I was probably a bit unclear, but what 
Gregory built into Gorm is what I actually wanted. I simply want that my UI 
comes up with the current system's default fonts, not dumping any error 
messages about missing fonts and not using any more or less guessed fonts. 
Just the system's defualt. If this does not fit into the layout of my UI, it 
is surely of some concern, but currently not for me ;-)

Thanks, Gregory. Thanks, David.
