Hi Crirus,

I am not sure if this answer is correct. But after a little searching on
the web I could not come up with another answer.

I presume that IE changes the font size on every font in an ActiveX control
by enumerating through each child control. So when it comes across a
command button it will change the font by the objects properties. If you
could find a way of making the properties read-only at run them, then this
should achive what you are after.

For example, if you were to make your very own command button, but did not
include a font property, I do not think that IE would change the font. This
is simply because it presumes that it does not have a visible font. But
this could have consequences, when IE attempts to change the font style it
would not be able to either, so your control would look strange :-(

And to be honest, I can't *totally* remember how ActiveX controls 'tic', so
to speak. With .NET you do not use ActiveX any more, you use .NET controls
or whatever you want to call them.

Nick.

I got fed up with programming because it's such a
hamster wheel. I'm glad I'm back, but its still a lot
of running just to stay where you are!

in tester form, even when I change text size of IE
