Ok, You're right.  So How do I change the default font assignment for the
caption bar to, say "MS Dialog" which is a valid (*.fon) bitmap font and
contains the Alt+0153 (�) trademark character.  When I try to assign the
font name from the graphical editor design page, save, recompile and run it
has no effect on the caption bar, only the body of the dialog box. I still
get the '?' where the '�' should be. What am I doing wrong?  Matt
