Jeremy Here are some sample screen-shots: http://www.david-taylor.myby.co.uk/software/wxtrack_at_work.htm http://www.david-taylor.myby.co.uk/software/hrpt_at_work.htm http://www.david-taylor.myby.co.uk/software/KeplerManager.htm http://www.david-taylor.myby.co.uk/software/msg_dm.htm The only allowance I make for large text is to alter the forms if a problem is reported. You can download some of the applications and test them for yourselves. There is little manual control positioning. My general principle is to try and respect all user settings (including the DesktopFont), but as there is a lot of graphics in these applications, perhaps the text is secondary.
