    I use m_edit.GetDC()->GetTextMetrics(&tm) to determine current font height. Then i call m_edit.SetFont(&myfont) but GetTextMetrics(&tm) returns old values. How to update DC object?

      Without seeing more of your code it's hard to say. Please note that each and every call to GetDC() must have a corresponding call to ReleaseDC(). Since you are not saving the return from GetDC(), your code is not releasing the DC properly. HPS HwndSpy - GUI developer's aid to visually locate and inspect windows.
