How can I control used for VBA MsgBox?

It appears to be a proportional font.

I would like to select a non-proportional font, e.g. Courier New.

I am using VBA 6.5.1024 with Office Excel 2003 SP3.

    The font used in the dialog box is universal for all dialog boxes in Windows. You can change the font in the "Windows Color and Appearance" settings dialog; but, again, remember, this affects all of Windows and the applications that run on it.

    Another option is to create your own dialog box by using a UserForm laid out the way you want and Show that wherever you would now call your current dialog box.
