Hi I have a little test program to display some text with OpenGL which is written in VB6 under W2K. when I run this program on a W98, it cannot creat the font!?!? I have downloaded OpenGL95.exe and via the AddProgram under Control Pannel, tried to install it. It expanded the exe and didn''t generate any errors! What am I missing, please? With many thanks, Daryoush

AFAIK, W2K is based from WinNT which have some difference with Win9x. Probably the file is set on NTFS mode while Win98 uses FAT32.

i always had this problem with 98, i always had to use textured fonts, i couldnt create a font in 98. Good luck! Win2K all the way baby!

i dont think its because of NTFS, that has nothign to do with it. It may be the way 98 tries to enumerate the fonts? here are some api's to try

EnumFontFamilies()
EnumFontFamiliesEx()
EnumFonts()

i dont know if this will help or not, but give it a try.
