General ⇒ Sans Serif font

[Noobix Cube]

Hey can anyone recommend a really good sans serif font that is a standard package for a MikTex compiler?

I guess more to the point, where can I access a list of font availabe to latex and how do I change them within the main code?

Take a look at the TeX Catalogue and the fonts that are provided [1]. I guess you will find a suitable font for your document. If you could formulate your ideas more concrete, we may be able to do some suggestions.

Thanks for le links!
What is the command to change the font of the whole document? Is it one command?

Depends a little bit on the font package. For example, using cmbright it's enough to include the package to have the whole document with a sans serif font. It is not recommendable to write a whole document with such a font, except presentations.
