ID: Q97160

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5 and 2.5a

SUMMARY
To change the font used by the menu bar in FoxPro for Windows, add the following line to the [Windows] section of the WIN.INI file:

SystemFont= A valid  must have the extension .FON (for example, COURE.FON) and must be currently installed. Invalid entries are ignored. The following example uses the Serif font: SystemFont=SERIFE.FON NOTE: The .FON files are located in the WINDOWS\SYSTEM subdirectory. You must restart Windows for the changes to take effect.

MORE INFORMATION
Once this setting has been changed, all menu bars in Windows and in Windows-based applications will use this font. This command also changes the menu title bars and default dialog box text. Currently, there is no way to customize only FoxPro because this is a global change made in Windows.
