I use MS wordpad alot. However the default font size 10 is too small. Does anyone know of way to permanently change the default font from size 10 to size 12? Or do you know of a similar freeware program to replace wordpad that has this feature? Never say Never Romeo Void Firefox 1.0 Thunderbird 1.0

You can get free openoffice software from www.openoffice.org

There is also a freeware program called notepad plus that is very good Rule #1: Good Computers don't go down. Rule #2: There is no such thing as a good computer.

The other way is to change the font then save it as a template - WpadTmpl.wri will do. Go to this file and make it read only. Make a shortcut to it and use this as WordPad in future. It will always come up with the font you had set but you will have to save it with a new name each time (you usually do anyway). There is no other way to keep the font setting in WordPad. DerekW
