Yes, but that would be wrong. 1. Query the registry for the current notepad font, and save it. 2. Modify the registry to use the font you prefer. 3. Launch notepad MyFile.txt using the RUN command (no need to shellexecute if you're not depending on the shell to match the filetype to the handler) 4. Wait a respectable amount of time for Notepad to launch with your preferred font. 5. Restore the registry value to the value you saved in #1.
