Comments

The Font property defines the font used to display the caption.

The font used for the edit control portion is defined using the control’s Font property.

If the AutoSize property is set to True, the height of the control is automatically adjusted to allow the complete caption text to be displayed.

Using PutRef (see Syntax above) the control will use the reference to the Font object. If the Font object is later changed, this will also affect the font used by the control. Using Put instead, causes the control to create a copy of the Font object. If the Font object is later changed, this will not affect the font used by the control as it uses a copy of the object. Because of the additional overhead and the increased resource use of Put, PutRef is the preferred method.
