WM_SETFONT on LISTBOX

[top]

When I sent WM_SETFONT to EDITTEXT with some font it’s ok
But When I sent WM_SETFONT to LISTBOX or COMBOBOX it’s working only on WIN98
not on WIN2000 or WINXP
May be UNICODE problem?
Any suggestion?
Thank you

thank you
the example is simple, after loading the font by:
hFont = CreateFontIndirect (&lf);
i send the id the font by:
SendDlgItemMessage (hDlg, wParam, WM_SETFONT, (WPARAM) hFont, (LPARAM)
MAKELONG ((WORD) 1, 0));
the code working correctly on win98 and on win2000 and xp only on edittext
not listbox

I can't reproduce a problem on XP. I've created a dialog box with an
edit control and list box and used this code:

case WM_INITDIALOG:
SendDlgItemMessage( hDlg, IDC_LIST1, LB_ADDSTRING, 0, (LPARAM)
_T( "Item 1 " ));
SendDlgItemMessage( hDlg, IDC_LIST1, LB_ADDSTRING, 0, (LPARAM)
_T( "Item 2 " ) );
{
HFONT hFnt = (HFONT) SendDlgItemMessage( hDlg,
IDC_EDIT1, WM_GETFONT, 0, 0 );

LOGFONT lf;

GetObject( hFnt, sizeof( lf ), &lf );
lf.lfItalic = true;
HFONT hf = CreateFontIndirect( &lf );
SendDlgItemMessage( hDlg, IDC_EDIT1, WM_SETFONT,
(WPARAM) hf, 1 );
SendDlgItemMessage( hDlg, IDC_LIST1, WM_SETFONT, (WPARAM) hf,
1 );
}
return TRUE;

I've tried MBCS and Unicode builds with an without XP themes and it
works OK for me.

What's different in your situation?
