Hey there Jean,

Thanks for your input on this. I would have followed up earlier, but, I was
bogged down with a client problem this morning. Anyway...

I actually was working with the Menu generation program recently - and a
modified a version of it to increase the Fonts within the Menu Drop Downs,
via the Menu Pad Define commands (I think that was where I made the change -
it was several weeks ago now). But, I was only able to make Drop-Downs
change Font size - but NOT the menu items across the top menu. Even in the
VFP Online help - it seemed that the command to define the Top Level of the
menu - didn't have the ability to change Fonts or Sizes. 

But - yes, I updated the Menu Generator program to make this change occur -
and then it would generate a new MPR (although - it would ONLY generate the
MPR if it saw I made a change to the Menu within the Project). 

But - it gets more complicated - since I only want the Larger fonts of the
menu to appear IF the user is running the App on a Tablet - but, have it run
regular sized fonts on a PC. Seems to me that would require 2 different MPR
files. Although, in theory, I could update the Menu Gen program, gen the
Menu for the Tablet version, set the program Back - and gen the alternate
menu for the PC - and just have the main program call the proper menu MPR
program. So, I suppose its possible to run things that way. But...

...I was just kinda hoping that MwSizer could some how take care of things
for me - so I don't have to Futz w/Menu Gen program, and producing 2
different versions of the Menu.

Thanks again,
-K-

In my very humble opinion : 'standard' menu font, size, ... are defined by
the 
MS Windows parameters. But they can be overrided by the FONT, FONTSIZE,
CHARSET 
and STYLE clauses in the DEFINE MENU (and define pad, ...). You can try to
play 
with ...

BUT : it supposed that you work with a .mpr (the result of the menu
generator) 
not the .mnx file ...

And I think you must execute a RELEASE MENU before executing a new DEFINE
MENU 
with the new options ...

Have a try on a simple menu and if it works, come back to the list and i'll
try 
to tell you where you can add your code in the mwresize class.
