just did a little research on dpi settings and how to change them - instructions led me back to the monitor display resolution - full circle i'm afraid.

>>Just bought new mini laptop 13.3 with optimal screen resolution 1920x1080. However I need to change that setting to 1280x800 to view all data in VFP window.
>>
>>Is there an initial setting I can change in VFP settings or set up programmatically so that when I start VFP it will change the screen resolution to 1280x800 either for VFP alone or for the whole laptop configuration.

>Could it be that rather than setting the video resolution, you want to be changing the DPI setting? I'm guessing that in 1920x1080 resolution you're getting a larger DPI setting (making the text effectively larger).
