Font size problem in reports

[Hans Fischer]

Hi all,

I am creating a report using VBA
(createReportControletc.). The user should be able to
choose the font and font size of the report with
commonDialog before the report is actually created.
As character widths of the different fonts vary, I need a
multiplier for the recalculation of height and width of
the textfields in the report.
Therefore I am looking for a function which returns the
character width of the chosen font.
Pls help! Thanks!
Hans
