I'm attempting some simple text formatting. Using SetTextColor to
change the colour of the text is straight-forward and seems to be
working fine. But it seems harder to get bold text.

As I understand it, I can create a font using CreateFontIndirect,
specifying a weight of FW_BOLD, and this will come out bold. But is
there a function which does the opposite, ie which will load up a
LOGFONT structure with details of the current font, so that I can just
alter the ones I want to change?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks very much. I've used GetObject (plus GetCurrentObject to get
the value to feed in) and it's working fine. Thanks for your help.
