What character set are you specifying when you call CreateFont?  For 
line-drawing characters, you need to ask for a fixed-width, OEM 
character set.

If you want consulting done, I'm sure many people here would be happy 
to provide it at an appropriate price.  The concept of a newsgroup is 
a bit different: the idea is that everybody helps everybody else out.  
Sending you email doesn't fit that model well at all.  If your news- 
server is poor and misses some messages, you might want to look into 
using DejaNews or AltaVista to find ones you've missed.
