Re: Change the font

I don't pass unicode string in function of dll. I pass ANSI string.
I have also tried by taking a unicode string and converting it to ansi
string by Widechartomultibyte. but don't get success.

OK
What i am doing? I have a dll. This dll has a function which takes a
string
as input and display it in a message box( or on a dialog box). I don't
have
code of this dll. I use this dll by loadlibrary then i call that function
of
dll which takes string as input.
In my MFC application, first i load the dll by loadlibrary then i call
function of dll and pass a string. This function display that string in a
message box.But i don't see correct string in message box which i passed,
i
see some garbage value. I think this is the problem of font. If i change
the
font of string in my MFC application and i pass it in dll function then
the
dll function will display the correct string .

Actually my MFC application is Unicode application and dll is ANSI
application. So i need to change the font of string which i passed. I took
this dll from an organization so i don't have code of this dll and i have
only this option to use the dll.

This a not clear. DLLs do not have a font, and strings do not have a
font. Can you explain what you mean by "change the font of string?"
