I'm basically trying to alter the font size for my program in accordance with the resolution; the programming itself is fine, it's more the maths of it which is the problem.
For example:
800x600 - physical font height = 22
1024x768 - physical font height = 22
etc etc.
As for widescreen vs standard resolutions, that's another issue once I figure out this equation.
Thanks in advance.

Windows, VS2005, built in GUI, C++ but that I assume is beside the point. Arial 22 will be the same pixel size using any OS/compiler or even language with the same resolution. The idea is that increasing or decreasing the resolution of the screen, doesn't effect the overall appearance of the font.
The end result might be the same, but the APIs to achieve it will be totally different - that's why I asked.
And no, I don't know the answer to your question, but you could try rummaging through MSDN for a while.
