I need to use DrawText in a MetaFile, but I could not get it to work, it seems that as soon as I use my drawing routine with a MetaFile hDC, it hangs. I am also confused by the following: 1. In Charles Petzold's boo he wrote "Some of the more complex GDI function: DrawText, .... " can not be used with a metafile device context. 2. In page 32 of MSW 2.0 SDK Update, DrawText is documented as one of the more complex GDI functions that can be used in a metafile. Can someone be so kind as to help me out on this? BTW, I am using Windows/286 v2.11 with SDK v2.1 ==Chaoping cy03@andrew.cmu.edu
