      Since you haven't specified MFC or API, I'll assume API and then you can apply it to MFC if you need. In the WM_SIZE handler for your dialog, call SetWindowPos with the HWND of your edit box to change the window position and size. Or you can call MoveWindow with the HWND of your edit box. Move Window is a simpler call. SetWindowPos documentation http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/psdk/winui/windows\_2blf.htm MoveWindow documentation http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/psdk/winui/windows\_92nr.htm Then to change the font of your edit box, you need to use SendMessage with the window message WM_SETFONT. SetFont documentation. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/psdk/winui/controls\_7v90.htm Hope this helps, -Erik
