This will show you how to retrieve the info using SysParamInfo ..
http://vbnet.mvps.org/code/screen/systemparaminfononclientarea.htm .. and to
set the font you use that same call with the SPI_SETNONCLIENTMETRICS mesasge
along with a populated NONCLIENTMETRICS and SYSTEMFONTINFO struture. You
also want to set fWinIni = SPIF_SENDCHANGE Or SPIF_SENDWININICHANGE.
SPI_SETNONCLIENTMETRICS: Sets the metrics associated with the nonclient
area of nonminimized windows. The pvParam parameter must point to a
NONCLIENTMETRICS structure that contains the new parameters. Set the cbSize
member of this structure and the uiParam parameter to
sizeof(NONCLIENTMETRICS). Also, the lfHeight member of the LOGFONT structure
must be a negative value.
The fuWinIni argument of SystemParametersInfo updates the WIN.INI file (or
registry):
Const SPIF_SENDWININICHANGE = &H2
Const SPIF_UPDATEINIFILE = &H1
