Keywords:   font message

Question:

How can I change the FONT size used in the Message() function? The text displayed is very small and it is not acceptable to tell my users they have to run their monitors in 640x480 mode.

Answer:

Message Boxes are handled by Windows, not WinBatch. It uses whatever default font the user selected or was installed on the system. We use the standard fonts that the user have set up on their systems. Most system message boxes would use the same font.

If you go to "Display Properties" sometimes there is a LARGE/MEDIUM/SMALL font selection.
