Kenny-

I just tried to copy a form and then edit.  Same Size!  I then unloaded it
and loaded the copy and it is the same size as the first.

I was worried because I to have some forms that are very close and knowing
my customers (compiled) would NOT say a word till I saw them.  Then they
figure they have me cornered.  So I did test right away and I do not get the
same results-sorry  I tried.  

I will try to replicate another way,  or perhaps somebody else had this
happen.  Just in case-I am using the latest update (76-31001)and cleaned any
orphans as a routine etc. ......

Sincerely,
Paul

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Impossible? RBase for Windows 7.6 Forms getting wider
automatically during design.

Hello all,

Am I losing my mind?  My vote today would be "YES".

Both my notebook and my workstation in this office have now displayed the
same problem and can be replicated.  I have never seen this happen before in
my hundreds of forms and thousands of saves.  Each time I loaded from a
backup db the form width grows.  I had to go another computer to be able to
fix the issue for the users of my compiled applications.

I open a form in design mode and the widths changes proportionally (the form
width, button size, text labels, font sizes, etc.) to about a third wider
than original.  Example: forms that the width must be 800, changes to 995.
I work on multiple sizes of monitors (and multiple monitors on my systems),
so I didn't notice until users reported unusable forms (too wide for their
800 x 600 resolution) after I save.

I tested a smaller form at 500 wide and it changed to 704 wide.

All I did was open an exit EEP on a dbedit, alter the code and save and
close the form. On the smaller form, all I did was move a button and save.

My Notebook is 7.6.7.3101, my workstation is 7.6.7.3.0420.  I normally do
not use the full version on the workstation, it was only used as a test
after my forms blew up.

Before I format these two computers and start over installing all my
programs, anybody got an idea what could have cause this?

Kenny
