OK, putting it all together.

CODE Designer has a file installed called pcsansi.fon which you can find
in <WDT_INSTALL_DIR>\system\pcsansi.fon
CODE Designer automatically loads this file when used.

If you want the Windows operating system to load this file upon boot, so
that it is available to all other programs including CODE Designer, simply
copy this file into the  <WINDIR>\fonts directory.  Then, even without
having run CODE Designer, when you look at the fonts available to CODE
Editor, you will see IBM3270.  I tried it on my W2K machine and it worked.

What you have said sounds like it is exactly the problem.  I would choose
a
different font but I fell in love with IBM3270 because it lets me view so
much more code in a very readable way.  Do you know if I can download
IBM3270 from somewhere?

Thanks very much for your response,

Aaron Bartell

Hi Aaron,

I have a theory why this is happening (although I am not able to test it
out at this point).
CODE Designer ships some internal fonts which it uses in the design pane.
I believe IBM3270 is one of these fonts.
What I believe is happening, is that when you use CODE Designer, the fonts
become registered to all Windows applications.
Then, when you shutdown CODE and reboot, the fonts are released and are no
longer available to other applications.
I don't yet know how to permanently install these fonts on the machine, so
I suggest that you try and find another font which suits you.

Hope this helps!

I have had a really weird font issue since I installed CODE.  Sometimes
when
I open CODE for the first time in a day it will have a totally different
font than it had when I closed it down the previous day.  That wouldn't be
such a big deal except when I go to change it back to font IBM3270 I find
out that it is not in the font list.  Later in the day I check to see if
the
font has become available and it has magically shown up.  What in the
world?

In other posts IBM has said that any fixed length fonts(right
terminology?)
that are available on my system should be available in the CODE editor,
but
even after font IBM3270 shows up in my list of valid fonts I cannot find a
trace of it anywhere on my system.

Has anyone else had this problem?  Does anybody have a remedy?

Thanks in advance,

Aaron Bartell
