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 "Steve Schafer (TeamB)" wrote: > On Tue, 15 Dec 1998 16:53:12 -0600, "Dr. Matt H.
