About the editor window (fonts and scrolling)
A)
I can wheel scroll in ANY other window of any app in Windows(xpsp2). I can even use it in the file tree window of the editor, but not in the code window. Why? B) Courier is my favorite but I find it pale. There is no bold option. I have courbd.ttf installed. It won't show up as a selection either. I find both of these issues so strange as they would be so easy to address. Or would they? any ideas? |

About the editor window (fonts and scrolling)
It is a major design flaw that you can't use the wheel in the
editor. As a workaround, use FreeWheel http://www.geocities.com/SiliconVall...freewheel.html For the font, try using Courier New. -- Cordially, Chip Pearson Microsoft MVP - Excel Pearson Software Consulting, LLC www.cpearson.com "Finny" wrote in message s.com...

Thanks Chip,
Do you have freewheel working in winxp? I meant Courier New. There is no bold option or selection. As a workaround for that, I uninstalled cour.ttf. Now bold shows up as a selection in the font list. bizarre Chip Pearson wrote: It is a major design flaw that you can't use the wheel in the editor.

Great.
I made a copy of courbd.ttf, renamed it (not the file name, the font), and presto, I could choose between Courier New and Boldier New. :) Chip Pearson wrote: Do you have freewheel working in winxp?
