You can't change fonts on the fly with VDS 4 by itself, however, the VDSGUI.DLL
extension allows this, the function is called "Dyna Font" I believe. 
Get it at:

Yes as FF said you can change the fonts on the fly using DYNAFONT command available in VDSGUI extension. You can use the VDS @fontdlg to allow the user select the font. (The demo examples show you how to do that).
You can do that on VDS dialog elements with a Handle (Edit/List etc - but not TEXT).

You can have a single color/font face / font size to all the Text within say an EDIT control using VDSGUI.
If you want different attributes to each line/word then youu need to use a RichEdit control - I did do a transparent RichEdit DSU but it has problems with XP.
