When FoxPro for Windows is started, it searches in the Windows directory for the FOXPRO.INI file. This file contains information about the main FoxPro window, including its position, size, and default font.

If the FOXPRO.INI file cannot be found in the Windows directory, FoxPro will be started with the default settings.

The information in the FOXPRO.INI file is updated each time you quit FoxPro. If the file has been removed, renamed, or deleted, a new one will be created in the Windows directory when you quit FoxPro.

To change the contents of the FOXPRO.INI file:


 * 1) Start FoxPro for Windows.
 * 2) Position and size the main FoxPro window as desired.
 * 3) Change the FoxPro desktop font to the desired font by using the MODIFY WINDOW SCREEN command with the FONT clause.
 * 4) Quit FoxPro.
