Unless adding font dialog services to PowerPro would be fairly trivial (because it would be nice to have an "inputfont()" service in PowerPro). I was also interested in trying to change the style of a bar so that it has a caption (remove toolwindow style and add ws_caption, sysmenu and minbox or reverse at will). Dialog's change_style service is documented to work on non-dialog controls, but I guess not on main windows (I gave it a bar's window handle and got an error message: "dialog handle isn't"). Since dialog is in the same process space as powerpro and its bars, it seems like it could potentially change the style of a bar window. But if the facility could be easily added as a cl service, that would be better. Main reason for wanting it is to be able to see a certain floating bar's footprint on the taskbar and in active buttons when it is not on top. Regards, Sheri
