I need to change the font used in an edit window. I
trapped the WM_CTLCOLOR message and simply mapped
a different font into the device context provided
by this message. Unfortunately this works only
half way. Although the edit window displays it's
content using the new font, there seems to be
something messed up with the position of the caret.

Any suggestions?
