>I have some problems with my eyesight which is badly affecting my ability to work. Is there a way to zoom the whole vfp environment without changing the fonts for the end user. Windows magnifier doesn't do what I want as moving around a form is not what it is designed for, zooming like browser I am using now is what I am looking for. I work on a laptop with 15" screen.

You should upgrade to WIndows 7. The Magnifier in Windows 7 now includes full-screen mode.
