>Is it possible to change the font of Visual FoxPro form caption?

Yes and no. :) You cannot change it only for your app or onlyfor one form. The window caption/title font is a OS setting. But you can change it from VFP for the whole OS. But, this is not recommended. Usually, an app should not change system settings. Those settings should be managed at system level.

Do you need to have a different font for each user only in your app or for the OS?
