Thanks for your reply....
I stumbled upon the solution by closely examining one of my other PC running the
same op system W2K....
I know Marlett is esstential to Win 98 but wasnt sure about
W2K. I had installed it but it clobbered all the system fonts which are used in messages
like " Installing network preferences" and a zillion other places turning them into
something like Chinese. Uninstalling Marlett made the
"Caption Buttons" the three like icons in the upper right corner of every window
totally illegible.
I finally noticed that Marlett.ttf has to set as a HIDDEN file
in the attribbutes part of Properties, then it works without
appearing all over the place.
Yr right Microsoft is no help at all on this subject
Thanks again for replying
Tim
