Is it possible to programmatically change the font size being used within a call to the ::MessageBox API.

In order for our users to use our application, we have increased the font size for all our controls and we'd like to have the ::MessageBox API using the same font (otherwise it is too small).

We know we can change the system wide font but we'd need to softboot the machine and it would affect all the other applications running on the device.

Don't know whether the device is important but Symbol PDT8146 - running Pocket PC 2002.

Thanks

There is no way to change the font unless you change the font settingd for all of the windows. You can create a generic dialog with the font you like and resize it etc, on the fly..... Good Luck
