This error message is displayed by the internal GetVisibleLines()
routine, when fldP->fontID is not equal to FntGetFont(). It usually
means that something has gone wrong with the internal field code,
versus a developer screwing up.

This could be a bug in the field code or the form code, though it's
not obvious from looking at the source. A stack crawl would be very
useful, as would a dump of the contents of the field structure...are
either of these possible?
