              BLACK_BRUSH           Black brush.
 
              DKGRAY_BRUSH          Dark gray brush.

              BLACK_PEN             Black pen.
 
              NULL_PEN              Null pen.

              SYSTEM_FONT           The system font. By default, Windows
                                    uses the system font to draw menus,
                                    dialog-box controls, and other text.
                                    In Windows versions 3.0 and later, the
                                    system font is proportional width;
                                    earlier versions of Windows use a
                                    fixed-width system font.
 
              SYSTEM_FIXED_FONT     The fixed-width system font used in
                                    Windows prior to version 3.0. This
                                    object is available for compatibility
                                    with earlier versions of Windows.
 
              DEFAULT_PALETTE       Default color palette. This palette
                                    consists of the 20 static colors in
                                    the system palette.
 
  Remarks
 
  Retrieves a handle to one of the predefined stock Windows GDI pens,
  brushes, or fonts, and attaches the GDI object to the CGDIObject object.
  Call this function with one of the derived classes that corresponds to
  the Windows GDI object type, such as CPen for a stock pen.
 
  Return Value
 
  Returns TRUE if the function is successful; otherwise FALSE.
