Hi Vasant,

you probably haven't run into the problems that can arise, so it didn't
seem like an issue. Defensive programming<vbg

Hi Bob:

I didn't realize the DC needed to be released if you weren't doing
anything
with it (besides getting the handle), but my API knowledge would probably
fit on the head of a pin <g.

Regards,

Vasant.

Sub GetScreenFont()
MsgBox GetDeviceCaps(GetDC(0), 88), vbOKOnly _
+ vbInformation, "Screen Font Size"
End Sub

Assuming you have already declared the GetDC and GetDeviceCaps
functions
to
get the screen resolution.

Need code to determine the monitor/screen setting 'small font' or
'large
font'.
I have code for screen resolution.
In Control Panel, 'Display', my 'Settings' advanced tab shows 'small
font
96 dpi normal'.

TIA
