Since DPI in addition to resolution can make a difference. I usually go for 96 DPI 800X600 form then use property commands to change the form to 1020 X 688.
This lets the users using 120 DPI to see it clearly and those using 96 DPI get almost the full screen. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Javier Valencia Posted At: Friday, July 09, 2004 9:57 AM Posted To: RB7-L Conversation: [RBG7-L] - Re: change form size based on screen size Subject: [RBG7-L] - Re: change form size based on screen size Mike: This is an interesting subject; clear to 6.5++ I developed forms for a 640x480 screen size. Now, all my full screen forms are developed for 1024x768 screen size, which I believe is the de-facto default for Windows.

You can change the form size easy enough, but it would be a nightmare to change the size of all controls on a form as well as the font size to make it scale up or down. I just stick with 640 x 480 and don't make a form too busy (If it gets crowded, probably need more forms or Tabbed Pages). > I have looked through concomp and rrbyw 1-8, but haven't found anything. > > James >
