From: hartkamp@uni-duesseldorf.de (Norbert Hartkamp) Sometimes it might be useful to have fixed-pitch font in your Listbox. One way to accomplish this is to use the System-Fixed-Font (at least with Windows 3.11 -- what about Windows 95?) The only thing you have to do is to set the font programmatically in your form-create-routine. Here's an example (where LB is the ListBox), where the font is set after some strings have been added to the ListBox: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LB.Items.Clear; for i := 0 to (SL.Count)-1 do begin LB.Items.Add(Copy(SL.Strings[i], 1, j-1)); end; { !!!!! NOW SET THE DESIRED FONT !!!!! } { System_Fixed_Font or ANSI_Fixed_Font } SendMessage(LB.handle, wm_SetFont, GetStockObject(System_Fixed_Font), 1); --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
