Opening Forms/Reports at a specific Screen Resolution size

[Guest]

I've developed an application using 1024 x 768 Screen Resolution size and
want to ensure that my forms and reports always open at this scale,
regardless of the screen resolution size setup on other PCs using the
application.

Is there any way I can programatically ensure that a form always opens at a
given screen resolution or DPI setting (i.e. 1024 x 768 Normal [96%])?

Any useful links or some magic code is much appreciated.

Regards

Byz

has a few links to the prefered solution: resizing your forms on-the-fly
based on the user's settings. I use a variation of the Developer's Handbook
code myself.

The alternative, changing a users screen resolution to "match" yours, is a
bad idea on several levels. Don't go there unless you want to turn users
into enemies.
