I am somewhat new to the NeXT scene, so please excuse my ignorance.  I would 
like to output text in several different styles and sizes to a text object in 
a ScrollView (ScrollView was pasted from IB).  As I understand it, all I have 
to do is send a setMonoFont:NO message to the docView in the ScrollView and 
then I can write text in multiple styles,etc.  However this does not work.  I 
enclose some sample code:

	theText=[theScrollView docView];
	[theText setDelegate:self];
	[theText setMonoFont:NO];
	endPos=[theText textLength];
	[theText setSel:endpos :endPos];
	[theText replaceSel:"Some Text\n"];

	endPos=[theText textLength];
	[theText setSel:endpos :endPos];
	[theText setSelFontSize:24.0];
	[theText replaceSel:"Some Text in 24pt\n"]; 

All I get is both text lines in the default font size. Is there something 
else I need to do to get the text object to allow multiple sizes,etc?  I am 
doing something wrong with the selection code?  Any assistance would be 
greatly appreciated.  Please send e-mail to cjones@cornerstone.com.  Thanks 
in advance!
