Screen Resolution Issue

[Cathy]

How do I compensate for different users having different screen resolutions?
For some users my forms appear very small, and on other user's monitors they
are blowing off the page.

Thank you!

Hi Cathy,

If you check the following link out hopefully it will give you the
information you require. I've used the resizing tool and it seems to work
quite well.

Another solution is to check your .InsideHeight property in the load
event of your main form and resize the controls accordingly. You will
also have to change each controls' .Top and .Left properties.
Changing the font sizes would complete the transformation. You would
have to change your own display settings to test your software with
each screen size. You should be able to start with a 800x600 screen
and work up. If you program for two different sizes, that will
probably be sufficient.
