dialogs using MS Linedraw and other line character fonts

Hi-
I want to use line characters in a list box in a dialog. There are several fonts which have these characters and they show up fine in Microsoft's Character Map utility - but when I select them as the font for my dialog box in my QUICKWIN project, the list box does display the core characters in that font in the list box, but it does not display the line characters.

Perhaps there is a setting I need to change to force the OEM character set?

Regards,

Keith Richardson

I have since found a font to do the job - Video Terminal Screen. Shareware, so let me know if anyone's interested.

There isn't anything out there with very smooth line drawing in a list box. I looked at a lot of fonts. If anyone knows of a better one, please let me know.
