Only change I have seen on my ( Win NT service pack 3 ) system is 'Color Scheme' on the Display Properties tab of Display icon of the Control Panel selections. With WIndows 3.x, I liked 'Emerald Isle', but closest thing on NT is 'Spruce' -- only changes color though, not the font -- earlier suggestion of a UDF / OOP form sounds inifintely customizable -- would also remove the current restriction of bytes able to be displayed. Hope this helps.
