Remy/Gambit, I mean this with all admiration. How do you know about ALL these things? It seems that every time someone asks a technical question you know the answer, and they are across such a wide range of topics. If you don't mind me asking, what do you do to pay the bills? How did you get such a wide range of knowledge? Oh, and also another "thank you" for this response about ClearType and for about a thousand other answers to others questions that I have found useful. Really, I'm not trying to kiss your a**. Sincerely, thank you for sharing your incredible knowledge and your no doubt very valuable time to help us all. Thanks again, Michael On Tue, 4 Mar 2003 14:16:17 -0800, "Remy Lebeau \(TeamB\)" <gambit47@yahoo.com> wrote: >Borland does not natively support ClearType.
