It definitely pays to talk directly to the customer and remote into his machine to see for yourself. It's a Vista or 7 box...I think it's Win 7. So I set his font size (via the Control Panel) at 150% and ran the app, and it works fine. Nothing falls off the screen anywhere! Why he said that, I'm not sure, but I can definitely see what he means about the 8pt fonts in some grids seeming small now. Because these are all hooked to the MBSS base classes, I'll just create some fields in a local dbf (settings.dbf) and allow him to set the sizes for a few things, stored in that table, and the base classes will read those settings in the Init and set their font size accordingly. That *should* work, at least in theory!!! Any other considerations you'd recommend?
