Screen Resolution problem

[Irshad Alam]

I made one mdb on the Pc which was having having 17 Inch monitor. It was
working fine. Same mdb when I tried to use on another machine whose monitor
is 15 Inch, the screen is getting bigger and the contents are getting hidden.
Again I took the mdb to my Toshiba Laptop whose screnn 15.4 Inch, its shows
smaller and arranged at left side.

Note : My all the forms are maximized. I am using MS Office 2000 and
operating system XP on all the above mentioned machine.

Please advise me a code, so that I can it every time once it opens the first
form. This will help me to run the mdb on any machine I like.

Regards

Irshad

It is not screen *size* that matters, but rather screen *resolution*. You
should design your forms so they work on the lowest resolution you intend to
support.

go to this link

it has everything you need to handle your problem.

It is freeware for individual users, as long as you leave the developers
statement attached to it.

If you intend on selling your db for multi users you can go to the link on
the page and purchase the code for that purpose.
