>That isn't right. If the Arial font only got larger in height, but not width, then 72 point would be the same width as 6 point, which it isn't. Point size refers to the height of a character. The width is then changed in proportion to make the character look correct.

Craig,
I guess I agree. It seemed like I had a form once that had a font that only got larger in height by changing the Windows display settings to "Large fonts". Anyway, I can't remember the font, and Arial definitely keeps it's proportion like you said.

What I should have said, is to make sure that you test your form in "Large font" mode if you use non-true type fonts such as "Terminal", "Foxfont", "Small Fonts", "MS Sans Serif" ... etc., because the form could turn into a mess. These fonts may be necessary if you need to display extended ASCII characters or you a fixed width font in a specific style.

David,
