I am writing a Win32 program in visualC++ 6, I have a dialog with buttons on but all text displayed on the dialog appears in bold. How do I change the font for the dialog so that is displayed normally

Sounds like you are defaulting to the old Win3x font, System, which is bold by its nature. It was the default several years ago, and sometimes windows and controls still come out that way, unless you explicitly change the font.
In the resource editor, edit your .rc file for the dialog, so that the font is a TrueType font, like MS Sans Serif or Tahoma. That will solve your problem. You can also edit the .rc file in a text editor, and change the FONT entry to whatever name you desire.
