Alot of people wish this could be done easily.  Unfortunately the EDIT class
can only accept one font.  Now, that font can have any style you like, but
it still has to be the same font throughout the control.  For multiple font 
capability, look in Petzold on text justification, etc.  Look at WM_SETFONT to
find out how to set the font.
